Octopus

Common octopus inhabit the wreck's many crevices and compartments, and are among the most reliable sightings on any Adriatic dive. They are highly intelligent molluscs capable of rapidly changing skin colour and texture to blend with any surface. At night they hunt crabs and bivalves across the surrounding seabed, returning to the same den in the wreck each morning.
