I’d give it time and not worry. Still likely settling into its new tank. I’d try an earthworm or live black worms. Can try the bloodworms.
This may seem odd but I rarely feed a new-to-me fish the first day I get it home. Almost never.
My experience has been that the more unusual the fish is the more likely the food won't be eaten and instead will just be an ammonia spike it doesn't need.

Not unusual at all; I usually wait at least a couple days before trying.
