Yeah, I like the ocean shore pictures after the hurricane. I was in Wildwood at the time...Wildwood crest to be more exact and went there for vacation on the last week of August going into September. A lot of money was wasted though cuz we rented a shore hotel which was really nice, but it rained the whole time and just had a slowly moving storm with 60 degree weather. We still went to Cape May though and saw lots of sea shells, rocks, pebbles and the light house. Before going home I just collected a lot of washed ashore jellyfish out of boredom and see if they would all turn to water which they did because their 90+ % water.
Anyways, if your octopus is Dwarf and an adult, its really dissapointing cuz you've only had it for a month, but at least you have cycled tanks and if this one dies you can look for another one worth having longer. Mabye the next time you get one, be sure to check out Toms Carribean first cuz so far, he seems like the one of the most relied on at this point with species knowledge. Saltwaterfish and Marine Depot Live seem alright so far as well, but their in Cali.
During the end of this year im hoping to buy a 75 or 100 gallon tank, mabye even a bit larger and have it start cycling during the 2nd to last month of the school year so once summer begins, it'll be almost finished cycling and i'll have the time to start looking again. My dream octopus will always be to keep a Vulgaris one day.
