Common name: Octopus

Octopuses are a genus of cephalopods known for their intelligence, ability to camouflage, and unique locomotion. They are fascinating creatures for advanced aquarists, but require specialized care. Octopuses need a species-specific tank with secure lids to prevent escape, and a diet of live or frozen seafood. They are generally solitary and can be predatory, so tank mates should be chosen with caution. Their remarkable behaviors and problem-solving abilities make them a captivating addition to a home aquarium, but their short lifespan and complex needs should be considered.
