How long have you had him?

If you only feed a pellet, like the food sticks mentioned, he'll eventually take them. My jar was very picky at first, but I only offered him foods I wanted to feed him and he ended up taking everything in the long run.
 
you should vary your aros food like use pellets, worms and put a minnow or two in the tank that would be better than just using pellets

I feed my jar shrimps, turkistan roaches and crickets which I personally breed (i'm also into arachnid keeping) and occational superworm, in my experience in arachnid keeping superworms are not very healthy for your pets because it contains high amount of fat and less protein, I only give it to my aro as an occasional treat, I also feed beefheart whenever I got a chance. . .
 
superworms are very fatty...go low on them.

starve the aro and it will take everything you want it to eat ( assuming it is a healthy beast, of course )
