That is really cool.  Thanks for sharing with us.

I can't help but think that more of those fish will be a tasty snack for Legs as he gets bigger  :D

Very neat!  You might want to make sure it can't get out of the tank though, I was reading about them and they called them "escape artists" and how they've been known to get out of sealed tanks and end up like beef jerky on the floor.

Its Evil Eye



It is a smart little bugger. you can tell when it moves how it is studying everything. Recently it shows up at exactly the same time and sticks to the glass and stares at me til i feed it. That's how I was able to get the photo.

That's what I was about to say.  Saw on a show once an octopus unscrew the jar it was in, climb out of the tank, slime it's way across the ship's deck and slip back into the ocean.
