My octopus caught a bee.....

[clownfish]

Well, I havent been able to get any fiddler crabs for a week or so now because of a shipping delay and I've been nodicing my octopus is looking hungry. But I had no idea he was this hungry! I just looked in my tank and nodiced my octopus is wraped around a bee. Oddly enough its a bee and I can't seem to get my octopus to let go. My octopus looks fine but I'm afraid he is going to get hert.
i have never herd of this before but what do you guys think.

They do eat odd things once in a while - even birds.

If you don't have any crabs, why don't you buy some fresh or frozen shrimp and feed that to him?

How would an octopus gets its hands on a bee or a bird? Both fly, are outsite, and the bird is definately too big to fit into an aquarium.

Um, story?

 

[DrBatty]

haha wow....a bird!!! I'd like to see that!
As said before....a bee? How could a bird or a bee get inside a tank that should be sealed?

doesnt mean the bird got into a tank.. maybe in the wild a bird will die and fall into the ocean where it is picked up by an octopus..
idk

Yeah, I think they meant in the wild. Bees are very capable of getting into small holes. Maybe it got in thru the sump. Who knows?

 

[aximbigfan]

you mean a bee as in "bzzzzzz"? how the hell did an octo who lives in the water get a bee flying in the air?
