although I have no experience with yellowtail angels my flameback loves flakes and pigs out for mysis, dwarf angels don't typically need to be weaned onto prepared foods like some other fish, its typical for them to not take some for a couple days as they adjust but they will readily take pellets flakes and frozen pretty easily
