need help with flame angel

I bought a flame angel from this site and I still haven't seen it eat anything. I've seen him pick at lr but not actually eat. So far I tried brine shimp, flakes, and an algae mix. Can someone help me out here? This fish is so beautiful I don't want to see it die. thanks.

Thanks. I'll pick up some seaweed selects and angel formula as soon as I get the chance. I also checked on past posts and found that others have had this problem. Hopefully he snaps out of it and starts to relax.

the one i used to have, would hide for 2 weeks, once i introduced macroalgae in the tank, it nipped at, so i used it as backup food for the angel if its still hungry

Entice, what type of macro algae? I can order some online this week. I was thinking of getting some because my caulera went asexual on me and had to remove it before it messed up my tank.

It starts turning clear, white and translucent. I had a bunch of it but had to remove it. Feather didn't last in my tank either.

I feed my flame mysis, brine, krill and seaweed selects. Definitely not picky about any of that.
Come Friday night we're going to filet him and have a fish fry :)
