blue ring octopus displaying great colors

[tjmitchell80]

Does it try to escape?

[desiremyvids]

we have these things everywhere in our back yard its like a reef beach and sometimes we see them ranging in about size of my hand to the size of a ping pong ball, we picked one u once with a bottle and it started going really orange, there is an anti venom for these things we have them up here in NT in australia, an aboriginal kid got bitten bye one and he was rushed to hospital and he survived

[tonyy33055]

Where can I buy or get me a blue ring. I live in Miami.

[TheEmachines22]

3rd most poisonous living thing on earth and theres no anti-venom...seems like a smart thing to have as a pet.

[MadeInOregon27]

Amazing creature and great vid ;) thx!

[rabbitphobia]

Could you make a video of you holding the cute little guy so we can get an idea of its size?

[TrulyAMalfoy]

@rabbitphobia Uhh... They're poisonous. XDDD I don't think that'd be too wise. XDDDD

[rabbitphobia]

@TrulyAMalfoy lol I was kidding..... Id love the no how to keep an Octopi so well done... btw they are venomous not poisonous unless maybe if you ate it................;)

[hidiie]

@rabbitphobia My Biology Professor says they're about the size of a golf ball, and why would they hold it in their hands, i doubt they'd want to die, lol

[TwatSwab]

@hidiie im guessing it was sarcasm....just a hunch lol

[randykate14]

Actually it only takes it an hour and a half for its poison to kill an adult. The bite is completely harmless but it's the venom you need to watch out for and it only takes about thirty minutes for it to take effect

[him1414]

how big is this tank?

[LETTHEBEETROCK]

does he get out

[glitchmaster439]

@LETTHEBEETROCK

No.

[darkfury45]

beautiful and deadly, kinda like my brothers gf, lol!

[laughincrew]

PUT IT IN WITH A MANTIS SHRIMP :)

[darkfury45]

@laughincrew some one already did that

[kingofallwhites]

Yo that thing is going to squeeze out of that tank and kill your ass fool! What are you Japanese or something? Either that or it will kill you when you are trying to clean the tank!

[tonydee777]

can you keep fish with one?

[1upShroomGuy]

@tonydee777 certainly wouldnt reccomend it. its extremely venomous.

[bellaCloud603]

It's so amazingly beautiful.. But so very deadly.. O_o

I love how it changes colour, my first time seeing one change colour!!! :DD

[BlackBird10111]

you can get catch them a stradie. not sure if its legal. not safe :P

[TheDecepticonsAttack]

hahaha thats soooooooo cool :D

[vett3l0l]

lovely tank and occy

[Pureownage1995]

I thought you couldnt have corals with octopus?

Also, how big is that tank you have?

cheers

[CajunH2O]

its a bite only that kills and no there is no anti venom but guess what? IT takes a few hours before the toxin starts kicking in.....most people die because they dont realize theyve been bit but all ya ahve to do is get to a hospital and they preform rescue breathing...usually with a machine until the poison metabolizes out of your body. So no death if you get to Dr folks

[LoughieSquarepants]

@CajunH2O not a few hours less then that

[capttheo1]

Is the danger from a surface toxin or a sting?

[jewlzben]

@capttheo1 its a sting

[714737]

most fish stores can order then for you. We would order them for people but the people had to pick them up right when they came in.

[TheLeathersmurf]

You have a beautiful set-up there, I am very jealous...

For everyone else... LEAVE THE BLUE RINGS TO THOSE WHO KNOW HOW TO KEEP AN OCTOPUS. YES THEY ARE CUTE, AND YOUR KIDS WILL THINK SO TOO... FINGERS IN TANK... AGITATED OCTOPUS... CHILD'S FUNERAL. GET IT?

[johno3412]

where did you get one of them

[mishac23]

u will probably have to order them.... my local store in LA got 2 accidently & sold 1 & i already reserved the other. They are giving me a $300 discount cuz its initial price of $400 is to keep any idiot from buying it. They are highly dangerous & this will make life complicated for me cuz basically i just wont put my hand in the tank ever unless it is secure. But yea they can kill u in a matter of min or an hour depending & u cant tell if uve been bitten cuz their venom contains anesetic.

[pecjoc]

ins't it very poisonous?And I believe it will probably make a nice dinner o any fish and crustaceans in the display

[dontmakemeMAD1990]

@pecjoc its verry poisenes

but like coraldevil people love nice colours

if i coud get one i woud to:)

[SHIBBY1996birthday]
