    I think Incognito is probably right on the money, he just needs some fattening up.

    What are you feeding and how often?

    He really needs to eat everyday at least once. Brine has no nutritional value for fish, so I would not bother with that.

    A nice frozen food that combines marine algaes and meaty foods, with the nori sheets would probably be good for him. And soaking the food in Selcon or equiv if you are not already doing that.

    Tangs are so active they need to eat more frequently than your average clownfish............
