my flame angel and my bicolor angel wont eat flake, pellet, algae, or frozen food. Does anyone have any suggestions? The only live food that I can get from the store would be meal worms do you know any where else that I could buy live food without it costing an arm and a leg?

How long have you had these fish? Is there LR in the tank? It's not uncommon for new fish to refuse food for a few days. Angels get a good deal of nourishment from algae/diatoms that they pick off the rocks and glass. How old is your tank? Most centropyges are good eaters once established. Try things like chopped mussel, sponge based formulas, mysis shrimp, finely minced clam, scallops, etc. You should also have algae sheets available most of the time for them to graze on.
