You run a chance introducing ich into your tank with all fish. Many people take that chance and don't have problems but it's up to you. Try some frozen foods to start off. Many lfs will sell premium frozen foods that are widely accepted by pretty much all fish and contain many good proteins and vitamins.

Ocean Nutrition makes a frozen food called Pygmy Angel Formula. My Flame loves it, but she eats everything I throw in there.

one other thing you can do is get a bottle of the garlic gaurd. and add it to your good. its helps prevent ich on the fish and it makes them eat. my kole didnt eat till i added that and he has ich now and he started eating even with ich. so that garlic really does work.
