I had a Caribbean dwarf octopus, O. brarieus, she was maybe the size of yours, and laid no more than 12-15 large, stalked eggs on the inside of the clam shell she lived in. She tended the eggs until they hatched, then came out, pale, and died. I was never able to find any of the babies, though almost all the eggs clearly hatched.
