How long have they been in the new tank?

Sometimes seahorses will take a few days to acclimate to there new environment and eat.

Worst case you can move them to a barebottom tank with no rock for a few days (you will need an external filter) with some hitches and feed frozen there. Without the distractions they will be more likely to notice the food, and you can train to a feeding dish. Also this wil allow you to monitor if they are eating or not, as you will be able to see there poop, which you should syphon out. I use a turkey baster.
