Lembeh: Other octopus

Encounters with octopus are almost guaranteed in Lembeh. While the mimic and wonderpus are the main stars, the other species of octopus are just as interesting to watch.

At Rojas, this octopus was observed swimming like a flounder. It is not clear if it is a mimic with a pale-coloration or a different species. There is a white 'v' on its mantle just like on the mimic octopus.
