red-tail, lets not stoop to their level with the name calling but yes as far as I can tell its eating!

I must be a bad man, I use THOUSANDS of fish/shrimp/crab/squid and octopus for bait a year and I have a freezer full of fish to eat. :( What kind of evil person I must be for enjoying nature and providing a healthy alternative for my family to eat...

this is an awesome thread! JD, if i lived where you do, i would do the same thing :naughty:

That has been the problem with MFK since i started... i keep fish, but am not going to join peta any time soon....lol
 
Just got to feed the troll
 
He is still kicking. Yesterday/last night he ate two small shrimp and a small crab.

Oscar, since he is eating so well Im going to pass on your offer, besides I can go to the store and get some beer and shrimp not an octopus to keep.

Im pretty sure any ray large enough would munch on a ray in a heart beat! I know my marbles loved squid.

Thats awsome. So when are you going to get a tank for him?

Oscar, I will take you up on that. A 12 pack of PBR and a couple dozen shrimp and I will release him, I doubt youll follow through though.

You accepted my offer yesterday, but I guess its only your word. Honestly, I figured as much from your actions.

Let me guess, there is no footage, its just your word that he is eating and doing well? :wall:
 
Im still working on it. Thinking after a month I will grab a tank. I do have an intank filter with a bunch of gravel collected from the sound. Im hoping that when I get a tank we will be ready to go.
 
No footage, he hides as soon as I take the lid off.

I dont get your problem man. If it upsets you so bad that Im keeping an octopus in the best way I can, why dont you just leave this thread?
