x2 wait a few days and try again. he might just need some time to settle in. I diden't see my delhezi eat for 5 days after I got it.
 
Mine ate right away but I didn't try anything you listed.
You might want to find out what they were eating before you bought them and try that(besides feeders).
My staple is raw shrimp.
But I agree with whats been posted.
 
just ride it out. once he settles in and is motivated by his own hunger, he will strike. when i first purchased my florida gar, it went almost 2 weeks without eating. think like a fish. . . (Smile). if you were suddenly placed in a jail cell and not sure of your fate, the last thing on your mind would be food.
 
let him fast for a couple days then try frozen bloodworms - bichirs can't resist them :D
