Emperor angel not eating!

[triggerfish2001]

My Emperor angelfish(adult) about for or five in. is not eating the flake, frozen, or live food we put in the tank. I have seen him eat algae of my live rock but thats it. He hasn't been eating for 2 DAYS!Please help me, by telling me how to make him eat, and how much time you think I have left to make him eat. Please post asap.

Seems to me Sammystingray, warned you about this with the adults!!

Especially when it has ich. Try getting some live brine shrimp, most can't resist this.

Wow!

Sorry , I just cant leave it at wow. Triggerfish after all the advice you got telling you not to buy an angel and overcrowd your tank you go and buy an adult. Im sure Ill get blasted for being rude but you asked for trouble and you got it and will get more if you continue to ignore good advice and not read as much as possible before you buy something. Everyone would like to have everything but it is not possible without having constant problems, so if you cant resist the urge to buy more, this hobby will be nothing but grief for you and torcher for the fish you buy.

Ick takes I believe 23 days to be completely gone. Even if you don't see it on the fish its still there so continue to treat.
