 Jus gotta baby

me and my boyfriend just bought a baby gator. we have only had it for about a day now. as far as feeding goes we were told that if you want to keep her tamed and people friendly to not feed her in the aquarium. we tried feeding her today but i dont know if she wasnt hungry or if she was stressed out? we were also told to feed her raw pieces of steak and turtle pellets for vitamins. we have her in a 25 gallon tank right now and still need to get her in a bigger one. we were also told to start tapping her mouth when taking her out to handle right away so she gets used to it early on and then wont bite when she gets older. i have looked at some sites online to learn more about raising her but if anyone had helpful tips on what worked for them please let us know thanks.....................
