Freeze dried bloodworm is not a good diet for them and should only be used as a treat just put a few pellets in, if he doesn't eat them take them out and try again later, after several attempts he should get the picture and eat them, he could easily go 2 weeks without food so don't be afraid not to feed him b/w

If only feeding freeze dried make sure you soak them first in some tankwater until they are soft. freeze dried food is notorious for causing constipation and other health issues. Its ok as a treat as mentioned but makes sure they are soft before feeding. Keep offering pellets-he will get the idea eventually.
cheers
