wild caught, not eating?

[adz1]

very small wild caught that is not eating .
he hunts and attacks just always ends up spitting it out.
have tried both live and frozen.
live black worms, feeder guppys and cherry shrimp.
he hunts the shrimp and even catches them but i can tell by looking at him he not actually eating them.
full grown cherry shrimp would put some kind of lump in his belly.
just kinda plays with the black worms.
thought i had a winner with frozen misses shrimp but no luck.
have medicated fish with prazzi pro and jungles parasite clear.
also salt in the tank.
any other ideas?
heres a photo of the little guy.

How new is he? A couple days? Give him time, let him get use to being in a different environment. You can't really rush it. Keep on with the feeder guppy's and the small shrimp. It will eventually eat.

By the picture you posted, little man looks really stressed out.

This exactly!

Just keep tossing the frozen in, he'll eventually get the idea, but keep giving him feeders in the meantime. Quarantine the feeders though, little pbass seem to have a thing for ick.
