I used to keep a large aquarium of tropical marine fish 15 years or so ago and the Blue and yellow tangs, and Clown fish died when the filter system failed when I was away for 3 days.

 

I was given a couple of tropical octopuses by the local Aquarium centre when it closed down they were only small about the size of Tomato but they were incredible creatures to watch and the way they could change colour in an instant was uncanny. They became quite tame with feeding and would actually climb onto my hand and partially out of the water to take food.

 

I used to watch them for hours and always wondered how advanced and intelligent they actually were.

 

I still have the aquarium and equipment, ozone filter, UV steriliser etc. etc in storage and will definately re establish it in the not too distant future.
