Octopus are NOT coral safe. It's actually the other way around. Corals can and will kill an octopus. I have one now that lives all alone aside from a peppermint shrimp (which he won't eat), a red serpent star and some chocolate chip starfish.
I am will be putting snails in the tank and if they get eaten oh well, I'll put in more LOL, There will be a need to keep the glass clean, however not too great a need as I don't run any lights on the octopus tank so there won't be much algae.
