Some questions.

Wow; that lack of longevity is of some concern. How will this affect their personalities? I don't necessarily believe that these individuals may be adults; as they are very small relative to the average abdopus aculeatus.

The specimens I observed appear to be far smaller than the average abdopus; what kind of tank size would be recommended?

Would the other invertebrate mention work for food? Are there any invertebrate that may not be edible?

Around 60 - 65 works great for adopus aculeatus.

Saying invertebrate is very general. there are lots of inverts that octopuses don't eat. Are they Crabs? if so most crabs work great as food, but some are expensive.
