Default Google video: Octopus in aquarium tank eats sharks

Seems that the aqarium staff were perplexed as to why they were finding shark carcasses at the bottom of the tank, so somebody stayed up one night to video the sharks.

Interesting - but then again, that little dogfish is about the size of most other reef fishes.

As kids we used to catch dogfish by the tail.

I thought they never proved they could do that? I assume you're talking about the humboldt squid?

I hadn't an idea that could ever happen, once that shark got trapped he would have died instantly.

That Octi was huge, cool.

Thx
