"Octopuses are characterized by their eight arms (not tentacles), usually bearing suction cups. These arms are a type of muscular hydrostat" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octopus
"All spiders have eight legs, although a few ant-mimicking species use their front legs to imitate antennae, which spiders lack." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider
