First of all buy a specimen that eats in your local fish shop. In your aquarium, I'd start with live artemia and chopped shrimps. They are prone to Oodynium and some bacterial infection, so you must check that your specimen is disease free in the shop. It will be wise to acclimate the specimen in a quarentine tank before putting it in the main tank.
