ID on this octo?
Im wondering if this is an O. mercatoris or an O. Joubini? Im pretty sure it is a dwarf...it is very small maybe the size of a half dollar.

Do you know where it was caught?
Judging by the proportion of its eyes vs. it's mantle I would agree that it's definitely a dwarf. Mercatoris' seem to be much more common than joubini. Either way, same needs apply. Have fun with it. |
it was caught in florida so i assume it is a mercatoris.

Most likely you are correct.
