Most animals you put in with an octopus will either eat the octopus or be eaten themselves. That being said, when using live crustaceans for food you will have to pick up after your octopus as they do not eat everything and will leave bits and pieces around the tank to rot. As far as water changes you do not want to do any water changes until the tank has cycled. The more you do, the longer it will take to fully cycle. I used to use live food for my animals, but it was a hassle for me to clean up after then and I just used frozen foods that were already pealed or easy to peel after they were thawed. I'm sure I speak for the rest of TONMO when say we'd all love to see some pics/videos of your completed work.
