Thanks!
Yes, Ziggy is a bimac. The tank was prepped and cycled for a cuttle but since they wont be available until mid-summer I thought I bimac would be a good choice.
My other bimac was wild-caught and a grown adult. This is the first time I have seen a baby. Cute little bugger.
With his arms pulled in he could easily sit on a dime with no over hang. With arms out it looks like he could hold the edges of a US silver dollar.
I watched him explore around and he seems much less cordinated and graceful then the adult bimac I had. I assume this 'grace' will come in time.

Very cute little Bimac, I bet Ziggy and Dottie are siblings 
dbbga,
Yes, what size is yours now?
Ziggy is very very small.
I am very glad he is eating as I thought he would be farther along.
He exhibits what seems to be odd behavior.
He does not spend much time in his caves. He even stays outside of his caves when I open the plastic cage and feed him. He just stays put and turns dark on me.

Torture!
You are all evil. Making me look at all these beautiful pictures and stories of octopus pets before my tank is cycled.
EVIL!
