Yellow Belly Tang not eating. Help!

[smklaw]

I got a 4-5" yellow belly yang about three weeks ago and have not been able to get him to eat anything. I have tried every dry food, including Nori. I have tried frozen brine and Arcti-pods. I have a couple of rather aggressive yellow tangs in the tank as well so I spent about three hours catching the blue tang last night and now have him in quarantine. Now I am hoping he isn't too stressed out, but I have to find something he will eat. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciaed.

Try soaking food in garlic?

Well, if you got him 3 weeks ago, he'd be dead if he wasn't getting something to eat. He's probably eating the scraps that the other fish leave behind.

Just watch him closely over the next few days and see if he gathers up any uneaten food, if not keep trying Nori, Formula 2, etc. If he still doesn't eat, try soaking everything in garlic.

Good luck!
