A small species, around 5 cm in body size. When disturbed, it gives out a warning through 2 blue-rings below its eyes, next to its siphon. They are venomous.
Shallow reefs especially among coral rubbles and sandy bottom and sea grasses.
All pictures shows the same Octopus. Like all octopi, they are masters of camouflage and can change colours as they moves from different environment, blending into their surrounding.
