My name is Anne and I am 15 years old. I have been very interested in cephalopods for almost 6 years now, but have spent the last year running reef tanks to gain better saltwater experience. After researching and preparing for a cephalopod for the last 2 years, I finally got to set up my first tank about 6 months ago, and I acquired my first octopus last week. So far he is doing great, though a little shy (not unexpected). He is getting more and more comfortable coming out for food and just to move to a different rock or cave, so I am confident that we will both be seeing more of each other soon. I'm pretty sure he is a bimac, but as always it is very difficult to identify exact species. Still working on a name for him, but I am thinking that Houdini is a fitting name considering he was always escaping at the fish store until they put him in a plastic container with a ton of tiny holes in it for water flow. So far he has been doing great and is eating great. I am looking forward to advice and possible contributions I can make to this great community.
