Think you'll need to catch it and grow it for a while in a tank to ever find out

Thanks, Jim. That was more or less the answer I expected. Not hoping for though, but juvenile octopus seems to be quite hard to determine to species.

I think the pupil is the right shape for a Octopus juvenile but not a match for a Bobtail/Bottletail Squid.I'm wondering if it's actually a bobtail squid (p.402 in the book Jim referred to), not an octopus.
Cheers,
Jim.
