    I believe it is a variety of cuttlefish.

  2. acolyte says:

    it’s obviously clyde/pokey.

    though why it’s out first instead of Blinky, Pinky, or Inky is beyond me

  3. Tim McDaniel says:

    The octopus in the BBC link in comment 1 looks different, but it apparently IS a dumbo octopus.

    This same picture appeared in http://cuteoverload.com/2007/06/13/dumbo_octopus_p/ , which points to New York Times article http://www.nytimes.com/2007/05/22/science/22deep.html , pointing to http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2007/05/22/science/20070522_DEEP_SLIDESHOW_1.html , taken from “The Deep: The Extraordinary Creatures of the Abyss” (University of Chicago Press, 2007), by Claire Nouvian.

    It is EXACTLY the pink little girl octopus from Finding Nemo.

    “Awww! You made me ink!”

    a baby dumbo octopus 0o0

  14. Steph says:

    It’s actually called a dumbo octopus, and they live 3000-4000 meters under the sea. I think this is the kind they used for a model of the octopus in Finding Nemo…

  15. Tracey Magrann says:

    This is a juvenile Dumbo Octopus found only in deep sea. MBARI has photographed several of these as juveniles and adults.

  16. pepper says:

    its a Dumbo octopus…

    i know this, the deep waters fascinate me >.<

  17. blokeice says:

    yeah this is a dumbo octopus, i was reading a book on weird ocean creatures and i found a picture of that thing, though dumbo octopi (i checked octopi is a valid spelling)can be other colors.
