Hello
I'm Australian based and the SOLE reason I have not kept one is because of a lack of Australian Based Species Information. It frustrates me because I would really like to have one but don't want to get one until I have solid information.
So how do I build a system around a species of which I won't know until acquiring the animal and posting pictures of it on here (except for blue ring which I do not want). What happens when the species is either small and thus a 'waste' for a 200gal system or when the species is to large for even a 200gal system?
Collectors do not categorize octopus species they are all just called octopus sp. (again except for blue rings), I cannot order a specific species of Octopus because they do not even know what species the animal is just that it is an Octopus.
This is why I have never built a system for one =[
