Whiptail ID

I apologize my little friend "Twiggy" wasn't cooperating.

What is he? And most importantly what does he eat? Seems to enjoy the zucchini!

Probably but this is a guess as it's a small fish (probably captive bred) and there is not a lot of detail in the pics.

Thank you for taking the time to id my awful pictures Jools!

"Twiggy" is very, very tiny, long but so thin, I am probably going to move her to my 5 gallon tank as she will have just a few tankmates in there (less competition, I had to wedge the zucchini in the tank in such a way that the other fish in the tank can't get to it, except the betta, my bettas love zucchini for some reason).

As far as preferences, vegetarian diet? Omnivore? Driftwood preferred? It didn't really note any on the species page.
