    What do you guys usually feed dwarf angel like coral beauty? Mine never eat any nori sheets I put in, but it will nip at micro algae grown in the tank. I think mine is not getting enough algae since he's developing some HLLE although I am always giving him formula 2 flakes and rod's food...

    Any suggestion on what should I feed it? Will so called angel fish preparation by ocean nutrition help? Or any other suggestion?

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Try to get a frozen that is almost entirely marine algaes or a mix specially made with angels in mind. Most fish will also eat it no problem.

    Rod's is fantastic! I've had a pygmy angel for about a year and a half - she doesn't care for the algae sheets but goes nuts for Rod's Food (which has "greens" in it).

    My Flame Angel goes nuts for NLS Marine pellets. Almost as nuts as he does for frozen brine/mysis.

    I fed my Flame Angel and Coral Beauty Angels Spirulina Flakes almost exclusively (at least 75% of their diet). I use both OSI Spirulina Flakes and Nutrafin Max Spirulina Flakes and recommend either.
