They hide most the time. And use them for caves at night. But the bigger octos stay out more frequently. And the bigger the octo it seems the longer they survive in captivity. The o.merc will live for a yr but may breed for you. So u can keep them reproducing and keep them going on.
I have a spare 55 sitting around.... hmm.....


but i need to do more research first...
 
I would be careful with a lot of liverock in an octopus tank...maybe bigger pieces not stacked. They will rearrange the tank and falling rocks can be bad.

Also if you search google and youtube there is plenty of info and examples on the internet.
