Yes, marine salt is the right one. Regarding their diet, they mainly eat things like mussles, shrimps, snails (to keep their teeth from overgrowing) and bloodworms. Good luck with keeping th GSPs.
Whats the point of a signature?!

There is a good article on GSPs in our Library. Read that one & the one on cycling. Then get to reading everything you can here & ask lots of questions! Be sure your parents will let you have a 30g tank.
