So I have had my new 3in naso tang for a week now. Ive watched him get thinner and thinner but he is eating. Not a lot but is eating. I feed multiple times a day and feed frozen everyday along with nori. he is always in the front and is not getting bullied anymore. does he still just need more time?

I mean I put a full sheet a day! that seems a lot for only 4 tangs. The nori is split into two places to spread the fish out.

If you don't have any issues with excessive nutrients in your tank.... I would suggest adding more nori in. Overfeeding at this point may help your naso. I also would look into a medicated fish food. I have used Dr G's medicated fish eggs with one issue I had with some anthias. It worked. Perhaps the naso has some internal parasites.
