Read the excerpt from Warriors Don't Cry.
"That's strange," Mama mumbled as she waved to people who didn't bother waving back. "No matter, maybe they didn't see me." Our neighbors had always been so friendly, but now they peered at us without their usual smiles. Then I saw Kathy and Ronda, two of my school friends, standing with their mothers. Anxious to catch their attention, I waved out the window with a loud "Hi." Their disapproving glances matched those of the adults.

Two days after the aquarium's researchers received THEIR first octopus, the octopus escaped through a grate in the floor and found its way back to the ocean.
Explanation:
The researchers are "them" and the octopus is "it." The possessive of "them" is "their" and the possessive of "it" is "its." Since we are discussing the aquarium's researchers - not its octopus - the correct joining word is "their."
