I'm considering getting an octopus that I've been told would be comfortable in a 14g Biocube but I'm wondering how I could/should reinforce it so he can't get into my filter area?
Small Octopus In 14g Biocube, How To Reinforce?
- Thread starter Gage Zamrzla
- Start date
Ive had an octopus I caught in a biocube 8g for a couple of months now and he has yet to escape and I havnt done anything to secure it, they are pretty tight as is with only two small openings in the back for the pump on one side and heater on the other.
That looks nice but that damsel wouldnt stand a chance against that octopus. Mine eats EVERY thing in the tank including fish, shrimp, snail, crabs, and hermit crabs (his favorite). The only thing he hasnt eaten is this seaslug that ended up in my tank some how.
They are cool. Mine is very interactive and VERY aggressive. Ive kept piranha, stingrays, armatus and many other toothy fish and this is the only one Ive ever kept that is so aggressive that it is actually difficult to work in the tank. If I put my hand in the tank he will instantly charge me and try to bite me. When I use the magna float he will bite and I can hear him grinding on it and now its just covered in scratches from his beak. He is a bad little mo fo.
