Which animal has three hearts, eight arms, and donut-shaped brains? You guessed it, an octopus, of course!
Octopuses are also masters of disguise, as they can change the color and texture of their skin to match their environment. So, look closely into the tank to spot the hiding octopus.

Giant pacific octopus
The giant pacific octopus can have a tentacle span of up to four meters. Turo, our giant octopus that lives in our SEA LAB section, is always happy to show off his long tentacles—at least when it’s not his nap time.
