My Het Albino is much the same way. He was a very picky eater when I first received him and was eager to strike at me. After a few weeks I was starting to get discouraged with him.
He is now eating every time he is offered a meal but is still quite the aggressive little guy. After working with him for awhile I have noticed that he is only aggressive when he is in his tub.
When I need to get him out I just place a towel over him and pick him up. I give him a second to calm down and he is fine to handle after that. The moment he goes back into his tub though...watch out!
