Angelfish not eating

bullitr

broke but happy
All of my 45 + fishes eat pellets like a pigs including harlequin tusk, mandarin goby and pair of cleaner wrasse

But My japanesse masked shallowtail angelfish never really eats except picks on the rocks in the main tank for a week so I transfer it to QT thinking my Achilles tang is intimidating him that's why he is in hiding.

Now 4 days later in the QT he still not eating well
I try homemade food and mysis no luck so tomorrow I will try mussel and clams
And maybe nutramar ova
Should I put him on the sump so he is hidden away and minimal interaction with human

Any suggestion ?
Thanks

How long have you had the angel? Did you put it straight into the dt?

If your qt is stable, I would be inclined to leave the angel in the qt until you get it eating. Make sure to offer it some hiding places (e.g., pvc pipe) and low light. Your fish is stressed from transport, being moved to the qt, and perhaps other fish. Give it time to settle in. It may take another week to start eating.
