Yes, octopi are fond of crab and lobster as well as other crustaceans, echinoderms, snails, fish, and such. They shred and consume these with powerful beak-like mouthparts located where their tentacles converge.

Octopuses eat small crabs and scallops, plus some snails, fish, turtles, crustaceans (like shrimp), and other octopuses.
