ghost shrimp would probably work great, but yeah keep trying the frozen stuff

looks like a jawfish lol. I have a dusky that looks similar, just not as wide. Id agree on the shrimp as this is usually a favorite among preds. Have you tried larger pieces of Krill?? Krill smells good to certain fish, might be just what you need.

He took a few pieces of Market Shrimp, but spat it out.. So ill starve him for a few days and try again..

mine eats any raw commercial shrimp/prawn (from the supermarket)
also pieces of trout or salmon
try waving it in front of him on a feeding stick
he also takes a whitebait if hes really hungry
i see you handle yours I was told they can give a nasty sting anyone know if this is true?

I finally got mine to eat some sometime back.. I starved it for about 2-3week.. Now i feed him a small piece everyday.
