Default picky eater

anyways have any tips on how to get a tang to eat? my juvi blue tang is always picking at rocks and glass, but i've tried 2 different types of flake, brine, mysis... he doesnt seem too interested. he also seems to ignore Nori, even with garlic... i don't think he is starving, he looks fine, but from my experiences tangs are usually Pigs so what do i do?

not sure about your blue juvi, but my sailfin goes NUTS for mysis that I soak in the frozen cyclopeeze. he doesn't touch the mysis otherwise. he's always been a pig, so eating is no big deal, but he just about turns inside out for the cyclopeeze soaked stuff

Cyclopeeze = fish crack cocaine.

Corals love it too. Its bioengineered little red "bugs" that are supposedly really tasty to fish & high in colour enhancing pigments.
