Octopus

[Marie]

I spent gold for an octopus. I see no use for it. Did I just buy nothing? lol

You can put it in a fish pond.

Or put it in an aquarium.

Or put it in sashimi

I found an octopus in someone's garbage can once. Obviously they didn't want it, so I took it home and put it in a fish pond.

The same exact thing happened to me. Octopus are so hard to catch, why would anyone toss them in a bin? I was mystified.

I don't understand how people can buy a fish just to put it in an aquarium, wouldn't it be better to put a fish you caught by yourself into a fish tank? It feels a lot better looking at the fish swimming around in the aquarium and being like "I caught that fish". Idk that's just my opinion-

You can let it infinitely take up space in your inventory, always a good option. You never know what when you might be in a difficult situation where the only solution is an octopus.

If it was a pet, it's a different story.

You can always find some artifacts and use those and the octopus, along with some other things, to make a “proof that aliens exist” museum in a shed.

In terms of your fish "collection" page, do you now have credit for the Octopus? If not, what if you put it in a fish tank and then fish it out of there? That to me seems like it would be the main purpose, to fill out your collection if you can't catch the fish the "normal" way. The Octopus is after all tougher than some of the legendary fish imho.

This might work for a fish pond, but not an aquarium. However, I really don't know.

Yeah I've never really tested either, as I love fishing. I don't know how much it would really matter anyway as it's not like you can get the Legend that way so you'll never have the full collection if you rely on it. Still, it's worth testing, I'll give it a whirl later and find out for sure if it does or does not work.

 

[Confused]

I mean... You have an octopus now... I think you just reached a moral goal...

 

[Boo1972]

Fishing a fish out of the fish pond does not count as you catching the fish. I don’t know about the fish tanks though. I never really considered it.

I'm on summer year 2 and managed to get an octopus frenzy, had to run all the way from my farm to the beach lol.

Even with missteps taking a moment to grab another billboard quest and buying some trapped tackles from Willy, I managed to catch 3 gold and 1 silver octopus, and an understanding of why it would be considered legendary level in terms of difficulty. I'm definitely keeping these in an aquarium with the legends I've caught
