Where can i find a colorfull Dwarf Octopus online a red one would be awesome!!!!

[bleueau187]

well your going to have troble finding a red one bc they can change color whenever they want! if you want it to be red put something red into the tank that it can cling to and camo itself. also of you are just starting out it would be a waste of money, they should only be kept by EXPERTS in a mature, est, non escapable tank. plus they dont live very long

Until I see pics of your blue ringed octopus I refuse to beleive that you actually have them. I am tired of seeing posts that someone has these and no proof to back it up. I am sorry for being so short about this but it is getting quite annoying.

P.S. Octopuses in general should be left in the ocean.

i have the a pic of one of them on my cammera but i dont know how to put it on the site can you help me with that its a failly good pic

[mtfabel]

First off is it a digital picture. If so you can go to Photobucket.com and get an account there. Then you can download the photo to your account there. After you have done that then just start a post on here click the little button at the top of the post box that looks like a box with a mountain in it( if you highlight it it says"insert image"). Then copy the picture link from the photobucket account into your post.

[clown shrimp]

[blind1993]

we are waiting. and leave the octo in its own tank.

[kh6sat]

pic anyone?

[blind1993]

wouldnt the octo die since their lifespan is just 1 year.

Why the heck would anyone ever keep a blue ringed octopus? I see posts about people accidentally getting stung by their lions, imagine a blue ring accident. You would not be around to post about how much it hurt. Wouldn't it be crazy though to be perusing the obituaries and read about someone being killed by their pet octopus?

[blind1993]

he probably doesnt since no pic.

[mtfabel]

I second that. No pic means they dont have one.

[blind1993]

i know it is probably a bluff.

[mtfabel]

I would love to actually see one. But I wouldnt want it to be in someones home aquarium. It would be cool if it was in a public aquarium. Still not likely though. I have also read that they only get the blue spots when they feel threatened.

[blind1993]

oh i didnt know that

the only octo i have seen was in the ga aquariums backstage tour and i think they said it was a day octo.
