Do octos like to eat baby raw carrots?I boiled 1 and let it cool off but five minutes later they have not touched them yet ?
 
They are typically biofilm eaters, I have seen them eat some fish food before, but never any specific vegetables
 
Leave a crude carrot long enough in your tank... It will make a lot of biofilm on it...

If you build it, they will come.
 
Try raw, blanched and cooked foods. Some fish prefer raw, others prefer partly cooked. You can also try pumpkin, zucchini, cucumber, etc.
