most octopuses live up to 2 years as a male because after the female and the male mate the female eats the male octopus because she is hungry. octopus live in kelp forests and coral reefs. octopi prefer warm water so they live in the sunlight zone. they also live in tidal rock pools, where they can easily disguise themselves in rocks and so they can catch their prey.
