Bing Seto's Beefheart Recipe

I recently visited Bing Seto's "Discus World" hatchery in Alemeda, CA. He gave me permission to publish the beefheart recipe he uses for his fish. Obviously, this will need to be scaled for the average hobbyist!

100 pounds of beefheart
50 pounds of shrimp
25 pounds of "Ginger Spirulina Flakes"
25 pounds of "Ginger Color Flakes"

(Note: In 1995, Bing sold me some of his Pigeon Blood fry. He grew out several of the fry from the same hatch that my own fish came from. I was very surprised to see a deeper red in the finnage compared to my fish. He attributes this to the shrimp in his recipe. Perhaps it could also be the color flakes? In any case, the difference was significant enough for me to decide to start feeding more than the Tetra Bits, bloodworms, and egg-based formulas that I have been experimenting with.)
