koran w/lateral line erosion

[acropora1981]

hiya,

My juv. Koran seems to be getting hole in the head/lateral line erosion. I'm confused because I feed my fish nori(purple, sprung variety), formula 1, and mysis. They get flake every day, mysis about 4x a week, and nori about 3x week. I was under the impression that this would provide enough variety and HUFA's to prevent lateral line erosion? what is my fish diet missing? I was thinking i'd get some of those cyclopeze flakes, to further increase the amount of fatty acids in the diet...

I feed about a dozen different foods on a regular basis. Pacifica plankton, frozen spirulina, blood worms, formula two, several types of seafood from the grocery store. Use Zoe and Selcon. You juvi angel may be changing to adult coloration and they can look a little strange for a while. The more variety in the diet the better.
How is the water quality? Do you use RO water? Any stress in the tank?

ok... I think probably the first step will be zoe and selcon, those I have not used in this setup. Its definately HLLE, unmistakably. I'll see if I can get a few more different types of food into the rotation. thanks
