I can definetly appreciate your educated debate on this creature and both of you seem very educated on the subject. I very much enjoy a spirited debate where the participants put out there arguements and challenge each other with out getting childish. I knew that when I put this here I would get some grief and negative opinions. But I agree with Thales in that boycotting the LFS has little effect on this type of thing. I would consider myself more than a novice and given the choice of someone getting this octo that has limited experience and resources or taking him home myself I like the animals chances with me. I am currently interested in providing this guy with a good habitat, diet and care and hopefully discussing with you all a year from now how he is doing and sharing some ideas.
