The plural of octopus is “octopuses”. You may also see some people use “octopi” which is acceptable but grammatically speaking “octopuses” is correct.
From the Grammarly Blog: In Latin, some plurals end with an i. The problem is, octopus derives from Greek. The i was a mistake, but so many people adopted it that it became an acceptable alternative.
