Agreed. Even if he outgrows them pretty fast, I've found that often the males on breeding season strikes, of all species I keep, will many times (not all unfortunately) be tempted to break their fast for a much smaller meal than their normal size. Figure if their instincts are telling them that they need to be ready to cruise around looking for a female, able to chase her once found and might have to fight other males, they don't want to be heavy and vulnerable digesting a big meal, so sometimes a tiny meal can tempt them. So having a few smaller prey items on hand can be useful. Sometimes works on females on strikes as well, though thankfully they do that less often.
