The absolute joy Joey is experiencing with these octopus is infectious.

[@starseed8087]

The joy should only be on onesided. The octopus would rather be in the ocean..

Octopi

[@odo345]

It’s nice to see Joey get so giddy over his animals

[@coralfish12g]

Love this bro! 🐙

[@emmafuston]

This has been incredible to watch. We've all seen octopus on documentaries and such but seeing this footage over home video is incredible. I can't imagine watching them in person.

[@thekingofdiy]

You totally get it! I’m so happy you feel that way, it’s exactly how I feel!

[@vanessabeaudoin660]

I just love how she went inside those rocks to hide and you can see all the legs sticking out. 🤣 So adorable and hilarious. I hope you to keep them both! I’m already attached haha. This is so fascinating!

[@MrAtrophy]

just remember octopusses can squeeze through a spot as small as their beak. the thing needs to an air/water tight. I know people that have had them and it is a constant battle with the little escape wizards.

[@klm20079]

yes, that why octopus are hard to keep. and depends what kind you have they can grow BIG!

[@sammyjoe6536]

Just seeing the colour transfer from the quarantine tub to the tank from the first octopus shows how intelligent and character of this animal.. as a viewer please Keep them both.. as an avid viewer watching theses octopi grow and your tanks grow as a channel would be a pleasure to watch 🙌

[@marymekiebiskwidge9953]

Hey Joey! As has been mentioned in a few other comments, if you do not already know, the octopus is 100% capable of opening closed containers, whether those be pop-offs or screw-ons. There's tons of videos out there on KZbin of them doing it. Since they're so incredibly intelligent, they seem to love challenges and puzzles like that. You probably already are aware of this, but I just wanted to caution you on keeping those little dudes in the same tank with your octopus, even if it is so small! They've got a surprising amount of strength, and I wouldn't want you to lose another clutch of eggs. Not a professional opinion or anything of the sort, I just have watched a lot of octopus documentaries/etc. haha. Not sure if your octopus would even be interested in eating them, but just something to keep in mind! Wishing you much success with these projects!

[@loftyskies123]

i was thinking the same thing .

[@almond5560]

I don't think they are strong enough yet, otherwise they would've gotten out of their own containers.

[@mayerkatz2836]

@@almond5560 First off, they were not I their best shape. Secondly, it's easier to open it from the outside than from the inside

The shark tank would be fun as a macro algae “planted” tank.

[@FlockensNekroparlor]

Your pure and unadulterated glee at every minor octopus behavior is why you have so many fans and followers 😂 Keep doing what you love.

[@zaviermarlow7480]

This is absolutely insane and i can’t wait to see them grow

I'm so excited for you! Please know how smart these ladies really are. They are remarkable problem solvers and will 100 percent know their owner and will enjoy interacting with you. It's almost like a dog. Please enjoy. They love different obstacles too.

What a hobby is right! How freaking cool. Dying to see more on these ladies. You rock it out Joey. I feel as excited about them as you bud.

[@yijuntey]

Theres just something about octopus that makes them so much cooler than other fish, like the way they swim and navigate around

[@corystiffler564]

I never realized how long I’ve been watching you until you said 4 years ago you built the gallery I started watching you for roughly 1.5-2 years before that it feels like it was just a few months ago that you where talking about tearing down the garage and building the gallery love ya Joey keep up the great work I always look forward to your videos

[@XpetraXpazlX]

Cuttle fish are so cute. & the octopus are really cool. I hope they like the tanks.

We’re gonna need A LOT of videos of these guys.

[@taymus13]

having an octopus has worked its way up my list of non standard pets I want to have in my life (bunny, lizard, turtle) but god I know I need some hard core training before I can keep one. Already saw your update for these guys, but good luck

He’s got so much love and knowledge for what he does that I’m sure they’ll be super happy and active critters.

[@cutiedudie2002]

I remember reading that only a small few of any clutch of eggs will survive until adulthood. If collected with care, shouldn't the ones collected for the pet trade really have no impact on wild populations? Please correct me if I'm wrong! I'm curious.

[@vic6427]

I agree with you there. They’re so intelligent and I’m not sure I agree with them in the pet trade. Pretty cool to see though.

[@thecreativestudio9557]

I saw a zoo once that fed thier octopus in a very interesting way. They put the food in an old picklejar with the lock screwed on so the octopus acually had to screw the jar open to get to the food! I think that would make a really cool feeding video! 😁😁

[@mae-cv7xi]

KEEP UP THE VIDEOS!!! LOVE YOU JOEY!!! The octopuses are so beautiful aswell, cant wait for more.

[@ashleydavies7740]

Have you got any idea how long it’ll be before the sharks are born? My daughter has asked me every day since she saw them in the eggs 😂

Pretty sure the last shark took around a month. It will depend on how far along they are in the egg.

@@craige9113 He did say in the video they are farther along than he expected. I'm NO shark expert, but I'm going to guess they'll be ready to hatch in well into 2-3 weeks.
