I thought it was easy, but it wasn't.

No, you just need to change the JPG used as the texture.
BTW, i will modify the way it moves. Going to try with attraction/repulsion on every tentacle (now they overlaps) and maybe make her swim and also use attraction/repulsion from the center to keep the tentacles away form the center.

For the moment it moves because of continuous negative_and_positive gravity on the x axis for every tentacle and a negative gravity on the y axis to keep them straight. Another simple but effective trick in creating springs is to make the farthest particle of the spring the heavier.
