I thought they were like endanered or something. THey are really cool. But you probably would not get 1/10th of the awesome behavior out of them in a tank.

either a zebra or mimic octopus. One LFS in my area has had a few of them. These are one of the creatures that needs to be left in the ocean. There is not enough known about their habits or population numbers to warrant taking them out of the ocean.

I agree!!!

It truly saddens me to see one in captivity. A species that should definately be left in the oceans.

Wunderpus are the most beautiful species of octopi there are. Their abilities to change patterns and mimic many other underwater creatures is all but fantastic.
