While we are on a short run of aquatic creatures, a small shrimp (is that a redundancy repeating itself again?). Scan

That octopus is really cool. Great posture and a perfect background to him/her off. They are not that easy to photograph, but I hear if offered a crab, they are suckered.

Thank you sir, I was lucky. Shortly after this was taken it moved deeper into the glass tank.

Not Martial Eagle, More likely the African Hawk Eagle, and more unlikely to be the Ayres Hawk-Eagle, the latter having more densely streaked breast. Google will probably confirm African Hawk Eagle.

Definitely not Martial Eagle, not even a Juvenile. It is smaller too, than a Martial. Incidentally, the Ayres Hawk Eagle occurs South of the Sahara and given that its plumage can be highly variable (to quote my bird book) its possible.
