    I've tried feeding the above to white clouds and neon tets but they don't seem interested, is that usual for these two? They take to flake food very readily.

    It's pretty common for tetras to be tank bred and tank raised, and never exposed to a frozen or live food. If they're not exposed at some point, it would be surprising if they did go and eat it.

    I would try feeding a bit of brine and spirulina with some flakes. Others have had luck getting other fish to switch to different foods like that.
