Use other ssh key than id_rsa on heroku

I have create a new ssh key for heroku wothout any passphrase. Than I deleted all other keys and added it to heroku using:

heroku keys:add /Users/ME/.ssh/heroku.pub

but when I try to push new git changes I get the following popup:

enter image description here

Can anyone please tell why it asks password for "id_rsa"? It's a problem because I don't remember that password and I want to use another ssh key (heroku is this case).

You can configure a custom SSH key for Heroku deployment by editing your ~/.ssh/config file. This example assumes you have a private key named heroku that's located in ~/.ssh/

Host heroku.com
  User git
  PreferredAuthentications publickey
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/heroku
