Tentacle trouble is an animated short based on a true story told to me while I worked at an aquarium store when I was 16. The octopus was caught on film leaving his tank, "walking" across the room to another fish tank and eating some things out of it, then returning undetected by the owner. This short is a 2 min episode of Houdini nearly being caught in the act trying to escape his tank to get at his favorite Octopus food.

Tentacle trouble is available in 2 formats. The DIVX is better quality and full 720 x 480 The Quicktime should have wider compatability. Both codecs can be obtained by clicking on the links below if you don't have them. Quiktime and Divx. All you have to do is right click and choose save as.
