Perhaps a quarantine tank? You've probably already thought of that already though.
She's pretty big and don't want to have to buy another tank for her

Hopefully she starts a lot sooner than you are thinking. I know how stressful it can be trying to get them switched over. Luckily most of my poly's made the jump to pellets with in 10 days but "Blue" my very first poly I got last year was a bit stubborn and it took him about 2-3 weeks to finally start taking pellets which stressed me out waiting for him.

30 days minimum. I mix my tilapia with Boyd vitachem. It’s almost as good as feeding them pellets. Try stuffing your tilapia with carnivore pellets. If they eat carnivores then I am certain they will eat @$$ivores.

Yup that's a great method I train them all that way only issue is there too many fish in there to be able to get her the pellet/tilapia combo. Plus knowing her she would sniff them out anyway lol

She really isn't a monster ester even with the tilapia. Takes a few pieces and swims off
