I just got back from octopets located in Carlsbad, CA.
Since I live less then 15 minutes away I choose to go there and save my new guy a lot of stress, OMG was that place so cool, its located on a ocean lagoon that I have been surfing by for all my life and never even knew about what was done there, there main cash crop is clams and mussels for resturants. Jim showed me all around there facility, thast place was so intresting and jim was so nice, answered every lil question my girlfriend and myself asked. He showed us all the hundreds of little cuttlefish they now stock, all the octopus, from a few different batches, the mothers that where tending there eggs, the seahorses the grow and the abalone, along with all the food things the raise. Then Jim thought of a cool little thing, so we went down and caught some wild crabs for my octopus and 1 for a little show, he put the crab in the cuttlefish tank and about 15 cuttles went in for the kill, was 1 of the coolest things i have ever seen.
Plus we got a awsome local deal, way below online cost. Along with getting to hand pic our guy.
