What are you doing with the nori?

I think if you rubberband it to a small rock and drop it in...he will find it...most fish are scared of the clip until they see someone else eat off of it,lol

 

Also, with the frozen...are you thawing and then putting in with your return or powerheads off?

i was fastening it to a clip. My sail fin eats it. and the yellow tang is starting to show interest, but not the kole tang.

 

 

Live black worms worked for my finicky eaters until they learn to eat the nori.

never tried black worms. have to try them.

Black worms were hit and miss for me for a while. After a good QT, all my fish go nuts. Have you tried soaking the food in selcon? I find that something in that drives the fish nuts, plus it adds a lot of those healthy ammino acids that your fish are supposedly meant to get, I'm not a fish food scientist, so I don't know. But what I can tell you, is it worked for me.
