Have you tried live brine? I've heard that they may go for that before they start eating the other frozen/prepared foods.

I would also suggest a live food to see if he will take it and slowly add some frozen in at the same time.

enrich the food .. try adding a little garlic to the food.. its an attractant the meatier the food you can get him to eat the better he'll do acclimating .. if he only eats a little at least he'll get good nutrition from what little he eats.
