Octopus in a tank, ah no thanks!
They’ll drive you nuts as they are escape artist.
They climb into your filters, get into the lights, eats you crabs and such.
Arrrggggggg No! NEVER! Will I put an octopus in my tank
Beat head on wall, fall on floor
We caught a tiny Blue Crab in our cast net. Baby was the size of a quarter.
We took him home and raised him in our aquarium.
When he was about a year old and about 4-5 inches across, we could not keep him in the tank, even though it had a heavy light and a lid.
Once we found him all the way in back of the house in a bedroom up against the wall under a dresser.
We had talked to a friend’s son who was a marine biologist and he told us to look in the place of our home that was nearest to the ocean, and that exactly where he was. We lived about 4 miles from the ocean at the time.
We finally took him out to the bay and set him free, but he never calls and never writes.........
