Im interested in keeping an octopus, just wondering if anyone knows much about it. Is it hard to do? what size tank is needed? are there many different types you can keep? anything important that I'd need to know, cheers guys

2 years seems to be the number floating around
There's 2 varietys commonly available being the black top occy and the red reef occy. Mine came out at night heaps to have a feed and stayed in his lair during the day which he built up with shells. The red reef occys can fit through tiny holes so a tight lockable lid is a good idea.
