Update on my octopus eggs!

These are octopus eggs, shown in footage of an octopus garden in the Arctic by NOAA Ocean Exploration. Mother octopuses are quite caring, protecting the eggs, cementing them to the side of the wall, and blowing fresh water on them for oxygen. However, the treatment doesn’t last long: Octopus mothers self-destruct after reproduction, sometimes even consuming their own arms, and die before the eggs are born. The footage was taken by NOAA Ocean Exploration in the Gulf of Alaska. | OceanX
