STRIPEY OCTOPUS!
neritic:

The Wonderpus octopus (Wonderpus photogenicus) can be found in shallow waters off of Indonesia and Malaysia and is often confused with the mimic octopus (unlike the mimic octopus, however, the wonderpus prefers dusk/night). The stripes and patterns of spots on the body are unique to each individual octopus and when disturbed or if it feels threatened, the colors of the patterns become more vivid and act as a sort of warning sign.
