Our Pet Octopus at Play

We raised our pet octopus from a baby in a 10 Gal salt water tank!! He is very smart and playful and interacts with the family. Check out his other videos : "Our Pet Octopus Clowning Around" , "Our Pet Octopus Squeezing Through" and his cute "baby" videos : "Our Pet Octopus Exploring" and " Our Pet Octopus Redecorating". Thanks for watching.

How on earth did you raise him in a ten gallon?

I have a 10 gal myself, yeah......but I only have two Kuhli Loaches inside. ._.

@Rockisrandom I have always heard that we need at least a 40 - 50 gal tank to have a viable salt water aquarium. So I started out with an existing 10 gal tank, thinking that if I can keep a 10 gal tank balanced in ammonia, ph and salinity for salt water animals, I can eventually keep a bigger tank with more expensive animals. I started out with tide pool animals because they can tolerate room temperature.  To my surprise, I have learned enough to have successfully raised 8 to 9 octopuses.

Now I want one of these! I shall name him Cthulu. And he shall dine on lionfish. Then he shall die because of the Lionfish venom. Then I shall get a second octopus named Cthulu II, and he shall dine on everything EXCEPT Lionfish! HUZZAH!!!

@elai001 I deal with collecting live marine life in Alaska and we have to have an "educational" permit ffrom the state. We do collect live octupus for salt water aquariums. We cannot return any marine animal including octupus back into the wild since being in captivity they may aquire diseases and spead them with devastating results to wild stocks. Just thought you should know because in all wildlife some of our best intentions may have unintended consequences.

[wasitgreen]

@elai001 If he is a bimac he needs a chiller and a 50+ gallon tank, the octos you 'successfully' raised probably died from stress, lack of oxygen, poor water, no stimulation, or improper temperature. You shouldn't attempt again without learning about them first.
