Hello All,
I am a neurobiologist working in San Diego. There's a possibility, in the near-term, that I may be trying to equip a lab with octopus tanks to pursue behavioral studies of, say, 4-5 animals at any given time. Does anyone--professional researchers and octopus fanciers alike--have any experience with suppliers of research-grade tanks and associated equipment (i.e., filters, pumps, single water supply flow-through systems)? If so, I'd be really interested in vendor recommendations. FYI, each tank should probably be no larger than 250 gallons, primarily because of space considerations; but, if you think each octopus would require more living space, I could make provisions for larger tanks.
Thanks very much in advance.
