I don't know how much is absorbed into frozen foods, but marines (unlike FW fish) do drink their water so even if it's floating around in the water column it will end up in the fish eventually. If he takes food in a single bite you could also try soaking some pellets in vitamins/HUFAs and stuffing them inside the frozen shrimp/fish/scallop etc. that you're feeding him -- much like dolphin trainers hide vitamin pills in the fish they give the dolphins. It's a bit of work, but if that's what he needs to stay healthy it's worth it.
