FWIW this is what the live aquaria "assorted Octopus" was today and they still list them as available. Of course you never know what you're going to get.

Wow, that is expensive plus $60 in shipping! I have 100 questions for the seller, I'm thinking he had a pair that bred.

 

[SabrinaR]

I think so too. I would have bought a few if they werent as bleeping expensive. They probably know its the end of the season and if people want them they'll pay it. Plus they are babies so people will think they could have them longer... though I have read that the tiny babies dont ship well... so maybe the price for shipping is to package them better than the norm.

 

[DWhatley]

I would not ship a 2 week old octo. I did not even move mine out of the breeder nets until they were almost 5 months old.

I agree, from what I have read they are just to delicate.
