Genus
Common name: Wunderpus Octopus
Scientific name: Wunderpus
The Wunderpus Octopus, known scientifically as Wunderpus photogenicus, is a striking cephalopod known for its distinctive white patterns on a reddish-brown background. This octopus is a master of camouflage and can change its skin texture and color to blend into its surroundings. It's a nocturnal hunter, feeding on small fish and crustaceans. In the aquarium, Wunderpus requires a large, escape-proof tank with plenty of hiding places and a sandy substrate. They are sensitive to water quality and require a diet of live or frozen seafood. Due to their complex needs and tendency to escape, they are recommended for experienced aquarists.
