Potter's Food

[JD'sReef]

So who here has a Plump Potter's Angle (Centropyge potteri)?
Harry (my potter) is healthy and eats, but not alot.
He is active all day long, but will only eat a few bites no matter what I put in the tank.
Frozen brine, live baby brine, Formula's 1 & 2 and flake. (Have tried garlic with all)
My clowns and yellow tails never stop eating, but he seems more like a grazer.
Any Input would be great, I just want him to be healthy and grow a little.
Thanks,
J.

Have you tried wrapping a smallish rock with nori or your preferred brand of algae sheet (rubberband to hold it on) and placing this in the tank for him to graze on? I have never kept a Potters, but have done that with other Centropyge and they find it yummy. You can use an algae clip too, but wrapping a rock is a bit less intimidating to shy eaters than a sheet of algae flapping in the current.

If he doesn't go for it, do remove the nori after a day, it can get stinky!
