    That's extremely cool, it'll be interesting to see if they hatch & how well they do. At least you'll be able to keep a baby or 2 since the female is ending her life cycle, & with Paul building his new Fish building now maybe he could take one or more to add to his collection! The rest you could release in the Wild as they get big enough to have a fighting chance at survival.....you adopted one Wild octopus but now have the opportunity to release multiple back into their home, pretty cool to come full circle like that, conservation in action!

    It's part of the life cycle but fortunately if the eggs hatch you can keep one or more and grow them and take us on a great journey with you and them.
    If you want something like an octopus but isn't quite so shy you should look into cuttlefish. One of the better ones to get though a bit harder to find and a bit expensive is the flamboyant cuttlefish. They are super colorful and extremely inquisitive.

    FEED HER!!!!!! If you feed her while she watches her eggs she may live! They usually die because they go soooo long without eating because they gaurd their eggs for so long they dont eat. Feed her crab but cut it up a bit so she can eat easier. If she is well fed she 1: wont eat her eggs (they sometimes will eat some if eggs are taking to long to hatch and they need the extra energy to keep gaurding them) and 2: she may end up living even after the babies hatch for quite some time. Feed her as often as she will eat.

    Octopuppies!
    On a side note, a few years ago I heard a gem of a story on the news about a moray eel. Apparently, this (I think) marine biologist, or whatever he was, used to go diving in a particular area quite frequently, in order to study the wildlife. There was a resident moray eel that lived in the area. Over time, this dude had "befriended" the eel and would often feed it treats.
    One day, while he was feeding him, yup, you guessed it, the eel bit off one of his fingers, which is why they now call him 9 fingers Freddy. OK. I may have made that last part up for a cheap laugh. Did it work? Anyway, I digress.
    Now, you may ask, what did this man normally feed his friendly neighbourhood eel? When I heard this, I damn near pissed my pants laughing. He would normally feed him sausages. This genius fed it a finger shaped and sized food and probably wondered why the eel bit his finger off. How stupid are some people? Good thing he didn't dive naked. 🤣

    I found this about octopus reproduction: The male octopus has a modified arm called the hectocotylus, which is about 3 feet (1 meter) long and holds rows of sperm. Depending on the species, he will either approach a receptive female and insert the arm into her oviduct or take off the arm and give it to her to store in her mantle for later. In the latter scenario, the female keeps the arm until she lays her eggs, at which time she takes the arm out and spreads the sperm over her eggs to fertilize them. Wow!!

      well maybe u right. But females can store their spermtophores. Im not sure how long, but i know some sharks and rays can store sperm for years. So it could be true. Then again the eggs of an octopus can take around 10 months to hatch. So this will take quite a while. We should be able to see live inside the eggs in a month or so, that will tell us if they are fertilised or not

      Not necessarily, they can hold onto their fertile eggs for most of their life from what I understand- they breed when they reach adulthood but they don't lay their eggs until the end of their life cycle- the males die after mating.

    About 10 years ago i came across some documentaries on octopus, squid, sharks, dolphins, and stingrays, and started to discover that they are very, very, intelligent creatures! If they could talk i think humanity could learn from them and help them take a step forward in evolving. Horses, elephants, apes, and other species are also very intelligent too. I think that if humans want to find intelligent life, we should start on our own planet, instead of racing each other to the moon, mars, or some star that may not be there if we ever get to it.

    Wow that's a really small tank for such a beautiful and intelligent creature like a octopus..shes need to be in the ocean and raise her young live her short life in the sea im sorry but some sea life would be ok with this tiny tank however not a octopus this breaks my heart.😢💯

    l doubt the octopus felt "comfortable" enough to lay it's eggs in that tiny tank. lt more likely "had" to lay it's eggs.

    I agree you do have to constantly change up the choice in a octopus tank however you do not have to change tanks nor do you have to keep the tanks closed as a plastic felt or an AstroTurf border around the inside of the tank just above the water is more than sufficient to keep the octopus from getting a grip I would mention that you would need to protect mobile hoses and other things however since you have an octopus I can already assume that the only thing the octopus can get ahold of would be the water jet nozzle although I do have to admit the size of tank that you are keeping your octopus in is ridiculously small in my opinion and a dead coral reef is not a toy for an octopus pop bottles and whiskey bottles on the other hand make great choices as toys

    Hmmm. It will be interesting if the octopus will eat and survive in captivity. I know that in the wild, octopus stops eating when they have babies and passes after the babies are born..

      they usually die before the eggs hatch. Even females that lay unfertilized eggs die in around the same time

    she will stay with the eggs and pump water across them all the time. she will also keep cleaning them and touching them.octopus never leave their eggs unless they are protecting them and then they do not go very far for the opening, i mean right out front. they die because they do not eat the entire time they are sitting with the eggs so they basically starve or fall pray to other stuff.
