Meanwhile, juice the red cabbage and set the juice aside.
Remove the tentacles from the pot and place them in the red cabbage juice. Refrigerate for 12 hours.
In a bowl, combine the potatoes, celery, onion, chives, cilantro, grapefruit zest and juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper, and mix well.
In another bowl, slice the beets and marinate them with olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and salt.
