Flame Angel - only eats shrimp?

[PotatoPig]

So I have a Flame Angel in QT, doing fine, just completed 30 days copper no issues. Eats like a pig since day 1. Only question is it seems to exclusively eat mysis and other shrimp type foods.

I understand they are also alate eaters, but this thing won’t touch nori, or any algae in any prepared foods. When I package algae foods mixed with mysis and it nabs a piece of algae it’ll spit it out immediately. Seems it’s exclusively carnivorous.

Is this usual?

Nope. I bet it will eat white or black worms

What he eats in hospital tank is hardly representative of what he will eat. My harem of Flame angel eats everything. Male Flame and Flame ON mode. Third picture is one of the females.
