Our Pet Octopus Clowning Around

Our pet octopus is sometimes very active and makes funny moves, almost like clowning around and inviting me to play with him.

how long do they live?

[elai001]

@ToothpickMcBrainy 6 to 18 months in the wild. I had raised some over 18 months.

Is it hard to take care of them i was thinking of getting one.

[elai001]

@AIflims Not if you know how. So make sure that you do some good research before you get one.

This whole thread is talking about captive animals and how that is a bad thing... I am a human and we didn't used to live in houses, but i would much rather be in my room then in my "natural habitat".

@WrongNumber07734 Getting a pet octopus take months and sometimes years of preparation. The Mineral levels in the water have to be at certain points. And the environment must be mature. But it is very worth it

OMG Its SQUIDWARD

@elai001 yea like i would set up a big habitat in like a decent sized tank or aquarium and i go around and find insects and things like that and they dont eat i have gotten a few turtles and 1 or 2 toads to eat but i have caught alot of them so compared to the amount of animals i have caught its not that much.im sure they will eat, but its just a little bit more stressful for the animals to be in an area with see through walls

@End0987612 I try to get him live food that he would find in his natural habitat and have no problems with him feeding. Did you do the same with your pets?
