Suggestions for feeding whiptail

I got this wee red whiptail a while ago and have noticed that he seems distinctly unimpressed by the dried food on offer- namely, novofect, wardley shrimp pellets,  novotab and hikari algae wafers. However, as you can tell by the photo, he seems to love scallopini, among other vegetables :) so I was wondering what everyone feeds their catfish in terms of dried food?

I believe the reds prefer a slightly more carnivorous based diet (they seem to eat greens when young but less so when older?), but I can't believe it's not feeding D: They are a bit shy when it comes to feeding, and admittedly they didn't get too much in those last couple of weeks because I was trying to keep the bioload low. I did Prazi them 2-3 times, but it might be worth trying it again. I have mine on Novotab, Omega One Shrimp pellets, Meat Pie, bloodworms etc without any issues.
