I feed my fish live mussels, clams and oysters. All on the half shell.
I also buy frozen clams that are sold as fish food when I can’t get live ones easily.

They will eat live white and black worms if it won’t eat the clam. I take black worms to my lfs sometimes when I get my shipment. He feeds them to new arrivals that are picky eaters
