...it's been a while, so my memory is hazy, but I seem to recall catching a documentary-type show once, where there were multiple tanks in a lab, one containing an octopus, and I think fish of some description in another. The "other" tank kept consistently and mysteriously coming up short of head-count in the mornings. A camera was set up, and it caught the octopus actually crawling up the side of its tank, crossing the floor, and going into the other tank for a snack; then returning home.
