Dare I say, chocolate chips? ;p

On a serious note, I think they are semi meaty eaters so chunks of squid shrimp etc should be fine but be careful about your water quality when feeding this type of food in large amounts.

I could also be wrong, but I believe thats what they eat hopefully the experts will chime in

I feed mine squid, krill, shrimp and scallops. One of those uncooked, unflavored bags of frozen "seafood salad" from the stores (just make sure no additives) usually works fine. Mine has been growing like crazy on a diet of primarily frozen Trader Joe's mix.

They eat any meat that doesn't move out of their way julianp's list is a good selection to go with, also clams and muscles on the half shell.
