are you using teacher fish? right now i have 4 yellowtails and a smaller red tail and a red tail payara. biggest yellow is right around 11-12" with the red tail being about 6". they have all been eating pellets for the last month or two. i had a bacterial infection problem that killed a couple of my yellows and a red tail but with some EM i fixed that problem. i used a big flagtail as a teacher fish. they have to suck at the massivore pellets so the cudas clearly see him eating. the longest mine took to break was 5 days.
I have a group of three yellows and one red. My group was surprisingly easy to break. I stopped feeding live right away. I did cut up silversides which they mostly took to quickly. Once they were hitting the silversides I started throwing in Hikari food sticks and most of them pretty quickly started transitioning themselves.

Yep try silversides, smelt, cut fish filet, have a go at some teacher fish, find a predator that already munches pellet, you mentioned dorado are farmed there? Are they raised on pellet? Feel like that would make a good teacher if you can find an appropriatly sized one
