Hello all!
The aquarium where I work is looking for an Octopus vulgaris for one of our display tanks, but there's a catch: the display tank we want to put him in is a cold water tank. I know that O. vulgaris has been found as far north as the southern coast of England, and according to what little research I've done about the waters off the southern coast of England, the temperature can get to 60-ish degrees Farenheit, which would be perfect for our tank. But I know that typically, only warm water O. vulgarises (vulgares?) are sold.
Aaaaaany advice at all would be appreciated. Thanks, everyone!
