you may be able to ween it off live food, but at that size it will be difficult.

alternate between similar frozen and live foods, then slowly mix in prepared foods with the frozen stuff.

an alternatave is to find a source of tropically acclimatized live black worms (so they dont need refrigerating), place them in a small enclosed tank with a couple of cm's of gravel in the bottom + an airstone. They'll breed easily, you can feed them fish flakes.

I have a regular supply of live blackworms, grindal worms and brine shrimp for my fish. After an initial outlay of around $60aud I have a virtually unlimited supply of nutritious food.
Anything that can breed in captivity has done so; it's great.
