Feeding Large Predators, Please Read

When I was working at a LFS a customer wanted to buy a green moray... He liked to slide between our tanks at night and eat other fishes... Well as I was netting said moray he writhed out of the net onto the floor... I though np I will just reach down and catch him like a snake...lol Needless to say I learned quite a lesson that day... :p
Also we had a customer tank that we did bi-weekly maintenance on... They had a dog faced puffer that was the meanest fish I ever dealt with... I know this is no shark or lion but he was a sneaky sob and would bite/spit every chance he got...

Hi I'm relatively new to the hobby got a aquael 150 110gallon tank been up and running 6 months now. Really need some advice on my new lionfish had him 10 days and he's not eaten once yet he's swimming round no problem but when I try to feed him he just isn't bothered tried with a feeding stick glass shrimp mussels clams don't know where to turn. Should I just keep going the way I am and he'll not let himself starve and self presavation will kick in or is there anything else I can do.
 
Thanks for the advice but I have been trying the feeder stick from day one. But I think the guppies or mollies might help first day of treatment was today got another two days but I'll pick up 3 or 4 guppies tomorrow. Hopefully he will be able to see soon��
 
Has anyone ever had an Angler take frozen food? I have not and tho I would like to get one, I will not if the general consensus is no. I will not feed a saltwater fish freshwater fish.
Thanks.
