Thanks Doug! I've been looking for a good source of worms. I want to try them in addition to brine. I think I'm going to need a multi-pronged approach to this guy.

Just curious, what anthias are those? Have you tried to mince hikari mysis to smaller bits?

No, I haven't tried the tiggers but I may try getting some tomorrow.
They are a pair of Sunburst Anthias, a small female and a big one that looks by all account to be male. Part of my problem is that my tank is fairly bright and has a large cave structure... so they're still acclimating to the light (so far the small one has only ventured out, though the big one came out for the cleaner shrimp nauplii) and they don't need to venture far from the cave. There is a flow through the cave but it's tough getting food in to them (they'll only touch food that's in the current). I've tried dicing up mysis and plankton (
euphasia pacifica) and mixing it with the cyclopeeze. The little guy will take the odd piece of plankton but the big guy doesn't even look at them from what I can tell (he hides in a cavern when I'm around that makes it hard to see what he's doing).
