Hello everyone,
I have had quite a few octos in the past years (bimacs, vulgaris, and an unidentified species) but I am looking for advice on the future. My previous octos were in the standard size range for "trade" available octos. I am right now deciding how my basement remodel is going to pan out an i need to decide between FW stingrays or an Octo. I have kept and bred FW stingrays as well so i am well versed in husbandry of both options. I need to know what options are available currently or commercially for larger octopus that would fill out a 135 cube tank. I am looking for an active diurnal octo that would hopefully max out in the 48"+ arm span. If I go with the rays they will likely be in another custom bar like the one in my old house.
. I currently have a 250gallon display with 450gal TWV reef setup and I have been keeping reef aquariums for 17 years just so everyone knows I am not in middle school asking my parents for allowance and permission to do this. I have used your website over the years for fantastic reasearch. Thanks for your educated advice.
