I know they are film eaters.. But I've never seen any fish not take a look at something live... How about trying some live white or black worms? I got some blenny s eating once with black worms.. Those worms wiggle something fierce once they hit saltwater.. Might attract his attention and get a feeding response? Worth a try i would say.

I do have brine shrimp eggs. Worth a shot?

my kole loves to eat the algae i scrape off the glass;actually all my fish go nuts for it.they get freaked out if i use a algae magnet,so i switched to a scraper

So, what happened to the Kole? Did he make it, or not?

Nop

It passed away the next day. Ocean nutrition was the last hope but it got banned in Canada for some reason. I was running from LFS to LFS for the "right" food but had no luck

I am just a bad tang guy

No more fish till I move and hopefully get a QT.

Sorry to hear. Are your other fish OK?

Yap they are "kicking". Foxface caught ich too but it shredded its skin and is now clean. All of the fishes are eating healthily and I am trying to feed them more than one time a day.

One of the stages of ich is that falls off the fish giving the appearance of a cure but it comes back with Vengeance.
If you have no qt get some garlic extreme from a Lfs or garlic extract from a health food store and soak nori in it and feed. Feed very often and only garlic soaked food.

Yap I am doing that

All the nori that's going in gets soaked in garlic guard for a min or two.
