Every day I feed 1/4 sheet of Nori - divided between two clips and between all my algae eater it is gone in about a minute. Here is a video of the feeding fenzy.

Today I put up the algae at about 4 PM and 20 minutes later it has not been touched, not by any of the fish. Very strange. All the fish are active and swimming around. The Two Barred came out and took a couple bites then darted right back to is spot in the rocks.

Any ideas why they have gone on a hunger strike?

Ok for you parameter folks

I did accidentally drop about 50 pellets (mostly spirulina) in the tank about an hour ago. Maybe they are just not hungry right now. Oh, and they all went into a feeding frenzy when the pellets fell in.
 
What makes it strange to me is that is all of the algae eaters. Two Barred Rabbitfish, Kole, Caribbean Blue and Purple Tang, Cherub Angel, Spot Breast Angel and the Matted File fish usually come over for some. No are having anything to do with it.
 
I will let you know after the 6 pm meaty feed. In the first post I said that they all went after an accidental spill of pellets.
