Hi all,

This is the updated List of Our Octopuses. It has to be kept in parts, in separate posts each covering a couple of years.

Please make sure your octopus is included. If there are any addiitons or corrections, please post them here. After a week or so, and when I've made the changes, I'll "stick" this thread so it will appear at the top of the forum.

Thanks for you help!
Nancy

Great list -- thanks for the update Nancy! Promoting via Twitter...

 

[Krakilin]

nice list I ended up selling my octopus Spectre if you could update that. He was too nocturnal for me

Buying 6 tank raised baby cuttles tomorrow though so ill post when I get them

 

[smalljerm]

lucky you, i`m still having a very hard time finding cuttlefish! i got my octopus already and its in a 55 gallon tank, and i`ve another tank set up and running for 2 months already for my cuttlefish, my cuttlefish was supposed to come in last week at my lfs, but while it was being send to my lfs, it died on the way, so sad! and my lfs doesnt know when will the next shipment will be. I just cant wait for it!

 

[Nancy]

Any further additions and changes?
