Pare, maybe you should starve them for a week and then try pellets/freeze dried. Try it and see what happens.
drop the feeders in one at a time. train the SH to strike at anything that hits the water. then substitute the feeder with shrimp or beef heart or what ever you want to use.
i tried this method using pieces of shrimp with my old SH. at first it would bit the shrimp and spit it out. but after a a few feedings the SH ate a piece shrimp. and from then on i could feed it frozen food.

thats a good strategy. i used i with my old royal clown. it trains them to know that you are the source of the food. throw them in at the same place every time so they know that is where the food hits the water. then starve them 3-5 days. hell even for a week. then throw some thawed food in where you always do. just be patient. they'll come around to eating dead food.
Awesome Snakehead collection my friend! Glad you got them off of live and THANKS for sharing your pics with us!!
