i got a keyhole angel about a week ago and he still isn't eating. it nips at the rocks a bit but that's it. i've tried 2 different frozen angel formulas, also flakes and krill. he doesn't seem interested in any of it. any ideas? he seems fine otherwise but i don't want him to starve to death. thanks!

i had one myself about a year ago and he won't eat. i try every thing, but in about a week or so he got hungry enough to eat. he died in bad ich sitution. (before i had a qt) lemonpeel was the same. just give it time. try tieing a piece of seaweed selects to the live rock.

try soaking some mysis in garlic or selcon, mine go nuts over it, but all angels are different, thats just works for me. If it was caught with cynanide it may never eat though.
