Thanks for the compliments, guys. Those drawings were fun to do. If the Tremoctopus ID can ever be established beyond a reasonable doubt, through poking it with a spoon, or sending it emails, the record shall reflect that it was marinebio_guy who called it, way back in Post #5.
Can Tremoctopus change color? All of the photos seem to show the animal with the same coloration. Maybe the animal wasn't threatened and this is its "relaxed" coloration, but I would expect if it had the ability to change color there would be some variation among the photos. Just wondering...
