solarboot-projekteDescription
this Octopus vulgaris was accompanied at least for some minutes by two Serranus scriba (compare https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/136894786 and https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/136894794), a Serranus cabrilla (compare https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/136894795) and a Symphodus rostratus (compare https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/136894787). The observed individual specimen are the same as can be seen in some of the pictures of this Octopus observation.
The small group of Serranus and Symphodus followed the Octopus and all were just looking at the Octopus. When the Octopus moved (several times) they followed and waited again...
