They're beautiful, but...man. What if it managed to get out of the tank, which octopii do frequently, and you stepped on it in the middle of the night! Sounds crazy, but stranger things have happened.
Not worth it, IMO

This is not true. My lfs "store pet is an octopus" I've been going there for years and it's the same one. Very unique markings.

with the exception of a few master aquarists of the aquatic universe on here, u wont find many supporters of aquiring marine life other than damsels and snails. granted, ive heard the same bout octos but if youve done the research and thats what u want i say go for it.
Squidy07 said:u have a blue ring octopus ?? if so where can I find good information on them?
Toddww1 said:most articles u find online tell u why u shouldnt have one. just keep searching the web and u can find optomistic people that can help u and give advise as to how to care for one. everyone will say the same thing on this forum....dont get one.
