LOL they are hogs and will eat about anything from frozen peas to shrimp . Not a fish for a reef tank though will eat any and everything.. They are not the shy type when it comes to food. Everything morris the cat was not. LOL
I'd recommend a balanced diet of a good staple flake food and a little meat for a snack once in awhile. But not on a daily basis sprilunia is good for them also. Good luck with the new fish.
