Sweetlips are sensitive and not that easy to keep. Hikari carnivore pellets aren't as suitable for marine fish, it would be better to feed something like Hikari marine S or Hikari Marine A.

IMO, its better to wean fish to pellets than flakes. You can start by feeding live bbs or frozen Mysis then mix in pellets. When the fish starts eating the pellets, reduce the quantity of the bbs or Mysis slowly before completely stopping the live bbs or frozen Mysis and feeding only pellets. Some marine fish don't adapt to pellets and it would be quite impossible to wean them to pellet foods.
