That is amazing. Glad you are making good use of the eggs, and doing the right thing for the animal. You are a true MonsterFishKeeper.

beautiful. yes i have heard that they die after giving birth, they dont eat while their babies are forming, they just sit there and guard them and by the time the eggs hatch the mother is too weak to catch food and falls prey herself. nice pictures of her, this is the first time I have seen pictures of a day octopus she is absolutely gorgeous. and also, thank you for supporting a better cause.
