Remeber that tiny octopus photo

[xny89]

The first photo, which went viral when published several months ago, is of a pygmy Caribbean octopus that my son successfully bred.

Well, that octopus has successfully bred, and these are the eggs. You can actually see the tiny octopi in the translucent eggs.

He loves the job. Actually walks out the back into gulf of Mexico to capture live food.

Adam - Thanks, I'll pass your message along.

Yun - It took him awhile to get the job, but he loves it. He gets to work with alot of different aspects of research, displays, animal care and education because it is a relatively small aquarium and research facility.

My son has now become responsible for their sea horse collection too. So add that to the list of cuttle fish and octopus. He also does weekly dives in cleaning out the shark tank!
