Bi-color Angel

[robbie2]

I just bought a Oriole fish I had it for the past few days..
It looks very healthy, but I dont see it eating.. It eats algae, but when i feed it brine shrimp and flake food,.. it does not eat it..
any ideas?or is that normal?

I bougth a pigmy and it didnt eat for a week then it started to eat slowly. my problem was with another fish. If that isnt your problem, Try dimming the lights where he would come out and feed him a little there and here so you dont overfeed your tank. I feed my marine cuisne(?) and flakes but maybe try something else. I heard marine oNe is good but i dont use it.

Ok so i am a newbie but i thought i would chime in. I have a pygmy angel, he didnt feed for a bit either. I was reading that most of the dwarf angels are more inclined to a herbivore diet. I feed my guys frozen food (Formula Foods by Ocean Nutrition). I originally had the more meaty one but then found the Formula Two which is geared toward algae eaters, and he seems to really like it.
