How big of a tank is he in and what other fish, maybe he’s stressed.

Try live black worms from your LFS. They are excellent nutrition for your copperband as well. [emoji846]

Tangs can be very timid at first, it may eat at night when lights go out....put some food in tank right before turning all the lights out in the room. After a couple of days if eats at night it will start eating during the day
