I feed the ones I work with mostly nightcrawlers with the occasional pinkies. They will also take prawns, tadpoles, frog eggs, caterpillars and fish.

The ones that were supposedly compressicauda in Europe have since been correctly identified to be natans.

I would suggest being very careful with benzocaine as it is also an excellant euthanasia agent for amphibians.
