They will eat wardley shrimp pellets for sure. Probably other sinking food as well.

Like most North American catfish they eat almost anything that fits in their mouths and have wide mouths. With madtoms the challenge is getting them to leave cover so they actually eat.

Mine would eat the container that the other fishes' food came in.

Mine were particularly fond of small crayfish, if you can get them. But as noted, they'll pretty much eat anything.
