I have a 7" lima shovelnose and refuses to eat anything but bloodworms and is not growing very fast because they lack so much nutrition, any tips to try to get him to eat other foods, he's even scared of feeders.
 
Soak some shrimp in the juices of the bloodworm, Or soak some shrimp in some garlic extracts.
 
Patients....my lima was picky for a while...took it about 2-3 months to eat what was given to him instead of nibbling here and there.
