ID Request - Small Caribbean Octopus
Hello, I got this new octopus from live aquaria the other day. He is supposedly a Caribbean small but he doesn't seem too small to me. I was acclimating it and then it found a little hole in the bag and squeezed through it was about the size of a dime. He then inked and shot into the rocks by one of my star polyps. I did a 20 percent water change and now you cant see any of the ink. If there is still ink in the aquarium what will happen to it?
Could you please help me ID this animal because I want to know how big of a tank it needs and what temp to keep it at. I thinks its a vulgaris but that's just me, it also looks kind of like a briareus I am very sure it isn't a hummelincki though.
