What do you feed your elegance???

So I just got this new elegance 2 days ago and want to know what everyone feeds theirs? I want to make sure it stays big and healthy? Is it ok to not feed it at all? Also as they grow does the shell grow too or just the tissue part of it?

I was going to originally ask why did you buy it when you don't know how to take care of it...but that would sound a bit snotty.

With that being said I would feed mine silver sides. Frozen, cut some up, then put them in a turkey baster, point over it, and squeeze. The elegance will slowly close up and eat away. Mysis shrimp will also work or what floats by as someone said above.

Yours looks pretty healthy - good luck with it. I really enjoyed mine.

Not a snotty question...actually very legit question. I am just curious because I have heard of many things (before purchasing) and others while at the lfs, and was curious what others experiences are. I have fed mysis once so far and it seemed to eat it nicely. Not offended at all...lol. Thanks for the info.
