How long will an octopus live in captivity?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It depends on the species. The Giant Pacific Octopus can indeed live for five years but others live only about six months.

Octopuses only reproduce once. Males die no more than a few months after mating. The female dies once the eggs she's been guarding hatch. Although they stop eating after mating it is an endocrine secretion from the optic gland that kills them.

Does octopus eat their own arms whenever in a stressful situation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Female Octopus does eat their arms, not in a stressful situation, but while taking care of the unhatched eggs. It does so only for sustenance.

The female Octopus does not hunt during the roughly one-month period while she is taking care of the unhatched eggs. This is the time she may ingest some of her own arms. While the eggs hatch the mother is too weak to defend herself from predators like cod, and it often succumbs to the attacks.
