im looking for places to buy octos online. octopets looks pretty promising. but what about marinedepotlive or others?? ne suggestions would be incredibly helpful thanx guys
A word of warning here: octopus aren't available year 'round like yellow tangs, etc...you may have to wait a substantial period of time before you can even locate one, even the captive bred bimacs aren't available all of the time.
i know octopus' arent hardy in the first place. but are bimacs relatively hardy as far as octopus' go. what are the pros and cons to purchasing a tank raised vs. a wild caught octo??
Captive ones will probably have a lot longer to live - as you know how old they are. Also they are used to the aquarium environment - both in terms of living in a tank, and with feeding.
On top of that of course - you would be promoting sustainable farming methods, so that the animals in the wild are better off.
