Octopus rookie

[bigdaddy]

Hello everybody. I've wanted an octopus for a pet now for 35 years. But I know nothing about keeping an octopus as a happy healthy pet. So I googled which led me here. So please folks, offer any information or advice. Your input is welcomed but also needed. Thanks everyone.
