Any others that have Cold water aquariums?

That's actually exactly what I had in mind. I work at the vancouver aquarium (have you ever been?) and we have a giant octopus (trinity) that is about 5 feet tip to tip but is only about 2 years old apparently. I played with and hand fed her yesterday... that was amazing.

as for octo requirements, they require perfect H2O quality with minimal variations. no strong intakes (or just cover them with mesh). and because they are escape artists a lid or a mesh fence that is supported by pvc. They can't grip the mesh or ,for some reason, the pvc. not enough to escape anyways
