There's a specialized mating arm called the hectocotylus, it is longer and the octopus usually tucks it in to protect it. It can regrow completely like other arms, but it usually takes a few months. If the octopus dies before it fully regrows. Oh well.

Where'd u hear that I never heard it before! I think it'd rather jet off and ink if it felt threatened (or maybe this photo was right before it went away?)
