The title says it all. I am going to put him with my rays, but he's a little small right now. I currently have him in a 30 gallon tank. I'm picking up a 75 gallon tonight which he'll live in until he gets a couple of inches bigger. I've found a lot of info on what they eat, but not what to try and feed them at such a small age. Any ideas what to try?

I've got blood worms. Where to I get beef heart from? I went to the Dominick's and no one had a clue what I was talking about.

Petsmart, Petco...
 
good luck with him... you'll need more than a 75 too...

try some massivore pellets... bloodworms, mealworms, earthworms, shrimp, scallops, etc...

Oh really? I didn't not know pet stores would carry beef heart. Thanks!

Yep. It comes in the same cube packaging that bloodworms come in.
 
Or you could get an actual beef heart and cut it up and make your own food. It would save a ton of cash. I used to make beefheart mix all the time when I had discus.
Btw it's not for everyone...
 
Beef heart isn't too expensive too...

Like I said, I'll be putting him with the rays once he's a little bigger. It's a 135 gallon. Will be getting a 500-600 gallon in spring.

I'll have to check petsmart out to see what they have. I can't find "pur" beefheart anywhere.
