Flame Angel

[cmiles]

I Have Recently Gotten A Flame Angel, And I Have Noticed It Eating Off The Live Rock, But Havent Seen It Eat Anything Else I Have Offered, I Have Been Feeding Omega Flake Food, Seaweed Sheets And Frozen Brine, All Soaked In Garlic. Should I Worry Or Do You Think It Is Eating Enough.
Thanks Charity

I have a flame angel, mine will eat brine shrimp and also eats off the rocks all day long.

Try mysis shrimp.. mine loves that.
BTW: You should not rely on frozen brine shrimp. There is no nutritional value in that whatsoever

Thanks For The Replies Are The Mysis Frozen?

 

[pfitz44]

Yep

Thanks I Will Try The Mysis, Maybe He Is Eating When I Am Not Looking. I Hope.
He Is So Beautiful I Hate To Lose Him.
Has Anyone Out There Ever Had Problems Getting One To Eat?

My Flame Angel is a pig, and will eat anything. The staples of his diet include Prime Reef Flake, Nori, and Mysis.

it has high lipid and carbohydrate concentration, but little to no protein.

Not much nutirtional value in brine.

I Will Try The Mysis Then Thanks For The Info. I Have Concluded That He Must Be Eating Something Or He Would Be Dead By Now, Tomorrow Will Be A Week I Have Had Him.
Thanks Again

When I first got my flame he kind of hid alot. I called it shy. After he gets comforatable with you and the feeding he should be fine.
