Golden angel

[JAANDGC]

I just received a golden angel, and it has not started to eat yet. Any ideas on what to try, to get him started. I have tried live brine with no luck.

Try mysis shrimp or cyc-lopeeze. It's a very shy fish and usually hide quite abit, so it may take some time to start eating. Some people have them and don't see them for quite some time and then all of a sudden they appear.

Are you talking about a golden Pygmy?

If you are I had one for many years and he never ate anything I put in the tank, he only ever ate of the rock. He spent 85% of his time in the rock, but none the less a great fish never bother any coral; I had him for 4 years.......

Then one day I picked up a sunburst anthias and the angel took a liking to his eyes. Next day he did the same to my six line I had for 5 years. I actually saw this happen. I then took out the angel and let LFS store have him. Just my experience, if it is the same angel that is.
