Octopus wanted !
My son is looking for a small (live) octopus (perhaps up to 30cm in size) for a specially built marine tank that is now all set up.
We have been told that there are small ones in the rock pools next to the swimming pool but we have been unable to find any.
Pet shops can't sell them as they are classes a 'food' and a specific licence is needed. Fish shops sell them but they tend to be frozen and not much good as a pet in this condition.
Any suggestions would be most welcome on where we could get one from.
