your octo is great! i just recently got one myself Octopus filosus or the Caribbean two-spot octopus. i love em hes such fun! what have you been using as the main source of food? i was just skimming through, since there are over 30 pages, and this is the first time I've looked at this post, so forgive me if i ask something you have already said. How did you seal the tank? And also what are you using as filtration, just the skimmer? I like the name u picked! Mine is Pickles...lol. it truly is amazing how strong their grip is and how smart and playful they are is'nt it?

i mainly use silver sides as food along with an occasional prawn or two. i want to see some pics of pickles to! the aquarium i picked has a built it wet/dry filter (i still use bio balls) and a prefilter. i have the lid weighted so he cant lift it and the only other way out is the overflow that i have sealed with some netting. where did you get pickles?
