I bought a 5" heniochus butterfly on thursday and it has yet to eat. Ive offered mysis,squid,mixed frozen cube,and also have nori on a few clips for all the fish. Hes the largest in the tank so im not sure why hes not eating. I know its still early but the sooner the better. Help if u can. Thanks

Some have had success using live black worms. I personally have found clams or oysters on the half shell to work.
