Bi Color Angel

[deadfish11]

I have a bicolor angel thats new to my tank. Its been eating the things on my rocks and when i feed the fishes, the angel doesnt come out to eat. i soaked the food in garlic but it still didnt make the angel to eat. any suggestions?

Give it some time. My CB didn't eat good for 2 weeks. Even now he only eats mysis, flake and algea. Anything else he won't touch.

it's a good sign that he's picking at your rock. sometimes fish need time to start eating. as long as he is picking at your rock i'm sure it'll be ok. also it would depend on what our feeding too. try mysis if you aren't already cause most fish can't resist it.

I had the same problem, he would pick at the LR but wouldn't touch anything else. I tried flakes, frozen brine, algae sheets, even squid and nothing. His fins started looking real bad after about 2 weeks and died shortly thereafter. I think my lobster or one of my craps might have got to him. I hope you have better luck than I did.
