Flame Angel?
I have just added a small Flame Angel to my tank that contains two Clowns a blood shrimp and a small Blue Tang. They all seem to get along great, however the Flame Angel has not eaten since entering the tank two days ago?

Assume you did not QT the flame? New fish will often not eat for a few days to a week; and if harassed by established fish, may never eat.

I bought a Coral Beauty a few years ago that was eating at the LFS and 3 days later it was dead. No idea why, maybe stress. I bought another one a few weeks later and it's going on 2 years with no issues.
