      Not my tank, but the owners have been advised to have large amounts of fresh brine shrimp nauplii on hand ... we'll see. If the "kids" make it past 72 hours, I'll definitely get more pics.

          Unfortunately the mother is doomed after the hatchlings arrive. How large is the aquarium, Gary, & what other inhabitants share the space? Thnx. Bob

                I had come across TONMO a while ago, but had forgotten all about it until your post ... Many Thanks! If you're into cephalopods, it is an interesting site worth checking out.

                BTW ... if anyone is interested in playing around with their very own octopus festoon, you can order them online here.

                  It's an ~40G in-wall display tank. The only other "inhabitants" are 5 damsels ... for food.
