Blue Ring Octopus...in a 125+G

[Gobrian44]

NOT MINE..found on youtube thought it was pretty crazy. And i'm guessing the tank is around 125 Gallons, hopefully bigger. Anyone here keep any species of Octopus?

I can't imagine he puts his hand in the tank much

Don't think blue rings fare in captivity very well at all.

I've been wanting an octo or a long time. Just shy of the idea considering I've never kept anything SW.
Lots of good info on tonmo.com for anyone interested in keeping cephalopods.

definitely not a 125. those blue rings are pretty small animals, and that boxfish cant be more than 5"
those short lifespans though.

I don't think it would make any difference.

nice tank though

lol, I wouldn't dare put my hand into the tank. If he gets bit, he's screwed.
