[EN]Three chemical methods for induction of relaxation in H. tuberculata coccinea (50-80mm shell length) were tested: sodium pentobarbital (60mg/l), 2-phenoxyethanol (2ml/l) and clove oil at three concentrations (0.02, 0.05 and 0,5ml/l). The time taken for animals to release from aquaria walls and recover from the anaesthetics was recorded. No mortality was observed after one week from experiment. All anaesthetics made animals release from container walls within 10-30 min, but they were ineffective as muscle relaxants, leaving the foot hard and contracted. The most effective concentration tested for clove oil was 0,5ml/l at 22ºC.

[EN]The present work evaluates, on one hand, two anaesthetic agents to facilitate octopus handling concluding that a 1.5% of ethanol (96%) in sea water (22ºC) shows rapid anaesthetic-recovery time, indicating its suitability for this species. On the other hand, a protocol for implanting Octopus vulgaris with subcutaneous PIT tags is established and after 10 weeks a 94% retention was found with 100% survival. Retention rises to 98,6% when tagging animals weighing more than 500 g.
