Bi color Angel

I just picked up a beautiful Bi color yesterday, everything seems to be OK, the usual new fish attitude. My concern is its feeding, I have seen it graze on my live rock but it does not seem to take to spurlina flakes or frozen algae. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience or is this something i should ignore and will fix over time.

All tank parameters are perfect and tank has been established for about 15 months now.

 

Try mysis.

 

Bit confused.

 

PE mysis shrimp are great food for almost any fish. It is used to help picky fish eat as well (other than live food) Aquarium Frozen Fish Foods: Piscine Energetics Frozen Freshwater Mysis Shrimp

There are other brands that sell mysis, but PE is known as once of the better ones.

 

theres also an angel specific food that contains sponges , which is good for their diet also. hikari makes a frrozen cube food.

 

I have been adding fish for 8 mo and never lost one until last week--It was a bi-color angel. I went against my better judgement and bought him even after he would not eat at the store. I just fell in love with his colors, and thought he would be ok as all the rest were. I lost him after a week. He never really ate or came around. He came out the third day, and then stayed hiding in the rocks--never saw him eat other than a little rock picking. I found out these are a hard to keep angel. I wish you the best. I really would like to try again some day. Just a little gun shy right now. Keep us posted

 

They are beautiful fish I hope yours comes around.

 

I would try some brine shrimp.
Also do you know if you can mix this dwarf with flame, or coral beauty?

 

Thanks everyone for the input I'll keep everyone posted.

 

I wouldn't do it. Not unless you have a large tank.
