Give it some time. My Powder Brown Tang hasnt eaten yet but im not worried. It will come around plus it might be picking at stuff when your not looking.

if all else fails go live brine, if live brine fails your screwed just give it time.

How long have you had it in the tank? Sometimes it takes a day or three for them to settle in.

Best way I have found to entice a not eating fish to eat is with live food. I don't like to recommend live brine, as it's got almost no nutritional value, but it often helps to get things started. Once he's eating, he should start to accept most foods. Clowns are not known for being picky eaters.
