One of my angelfish isn't eating. I haven't had it long. Just a few weeks. When i first got it, it ate fine. But, for the past week I've only seen it eat one flake of food. I really don't know what it's living on. It appears healthy and acts healthy. All the other fish are eating like pigs as usual. I even added an additional food to the two I had been feeding. I try to drop the food in front of the angel that isn't eating. Tank parameters are normal. I don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?

My angel is a really light eater as well he only eats about 3 or 4 flakes he is really small though not sure if he is young or just the marbled ones are smaller then the other kinds

How many angels have you got in total? How big is your tank?

I have 4 Angels and 1 of them will eat very little when the two bossy Angels are in Boss mode...usually it settles again within a week.

The one that isn't eating is the largest angel. There are three other angels, a gold severum, and two small algae eaters in a 55 gallon tank. No pairs. Pretty peaceful.
