Octopus rubescens generally grows to a mantle length of 8–10 cm, and arm length of 30–40 cm. Adult weight is generally 100-150 grams, however occasionally animals up to 400 grams in weight have been observed. Like all octopuses, O. rubescens can change its color and texture, making its appearance highly variable. Color can vary from a deep brick red, to brown, to white, or mottled mixtures of the three. The octopus in the {{SER}} is the East Pacific Red Octopus. | Octopus rubescens generally grows to a mantle length of 8–10 cm, and arm length of 30–40 cm.
