Great.

You can try using a feeding stick to skewer the seafood on it & then waving it in front of the shark.

I had a bamboo catshark I hatched it from an egg pouch, awsome sharks. they start off with that cool stripe colouration and it fades as they mature. I had mine in a 180g and within six months he was to big for my tank so I sold him to a guy with a 400g FOWLR tank I miss the little guy. anyways for feeding I gave him/her squid, I cut it up into mouth sized peices and put it at the bottom of the tank in an open space where he/her liked to swim by. I also gave him peices of shrimp and crab meat in the same fashion. also these are low light dwellers so try to make caves and such for the little guy and try to feed him when your main lights are off.
Things to be carefull about are: your hermits and snails, he will gobble them up one by one.
Another trick I used (but is not good for your invertibrates) is to stuff a little crab meat inside an empty hermit crab shell and leave it sticking out ( I had to do this to try and slow the killing of my hermits and snails) and over time remove it and move it father and farther from the shell untill it will eat the food in the open.
