[Octopus]: Today I made the leap.

Liveaquaria had an "assorted octopus indo-pacific". I ordered it. It will be here Tuesday. Wish me luck!

Okay. Tomorrow is the day. The lid is secured. I am proofing the overflow... I know I'm late.
I'm sitting at
0ppm ammonia
0ppm nitrite
7.5 ppm nitrate
77 degrees
1.027 salinity.

Anything I should change before we go? I was thinking about doing a 15% water change. Maybe lowering the salinity a hair?

Good luck!

I think I would leave it alone at this point so that it remains stable for your acclimation.

I got an email last night from liveaquaria stating it would not be shipped. Apparently the animals health declined. Back to the search. I'm about to buy this mimic and be done with it...

The octopus showed up back on liveaquaria after I cancelled my order. I ordered it again.

It's here. It's in the tank. It is small enough to treat every crevice as a cave, so all my caving was in vain! Lol. I have no idea what it is yet. Here is the only pic I have so far...
