Is there a special feed for this fish? If not what are people usually feeding it?

Just saw they eat barra and trout feed, so what should i get for 4-5cm silvers? :oops:

Got some fish food from Rupert.

Just wondering will silvers eat feeder fish at all? How about glass shrimp? (Im guess yabbies will eat both if the silvers dont like it? :D)
