I was able to con Kara into collecting and sending me more zoo plankton from a better (for octo food) collecting spot (fortunately she is cheering the little guys on since she caught and named Kooah). This batch contained a bunch of tiny saltwater crabs and a few nicely sized shrimp. Some of the little crabs did not make shipping but had no smell so I froze them and will experiement with feeding tonight (getting them attached to the pipette will be tricky). If they take the SW shrimp (I will start with a couple of frozen), I will get some shore shrimp from Paul but so far they only take the very soft, mysis. There are also a couple of tiny fish but I am not sure if I will try to feed these since they offer less food value.
Nancy, I was surprised at the different, identifiable behaviors as well. Pogo is particularly funny with his commandeering of the feeding stick. If all four regulars were in a single tank, Pogo would be immediately identifiable at feeding time. None of the others show this behavior and there is no mistaking his difference.
