Give him time to settle in, you can feed your lion live ghost shrimp (feed them something nutritional first), keep trying the frozen foods, pick up a feeding stick/prong to feed with.

Thanks!
The next step is to get it trained to eat frozen from you. I've had great success by using liquid garlic. Start by soaking the live food in some water with a couple of drops of this. After a few feedings, begin to introduce more frozen foods along with live. The idea is that the Lion will come to associate the garlic stimuli as feeding time and feed on whatever you introduce.
