I've seen similar behaviour before. I have a huge oscar that lives in a bit of a community tank and there are plenty of small fish in there...he could swallow a few with no problems, but he leaves them alone and doesn't think of them as food at all. I've only fed him frozen and pellet foods. If I put a feeder in and it freaks out and shows panicked prey behaviour he'll eat it, otherwise it's just another tankmate.
