Cool Scooter and Star Goby looking thin

My scooter dragonette and star goby are looking a little thin these days. My tank has been up and running for months now and for som reason these guys are all of a sudden looking thin. My star doesn't sift the sand like he used too but eats frozen mysis and brine like crazy. The little scooter used to eat brine pretty good but now, anything I put in the tank, he pretty much ignores. His activity level has been decreasing slowly for the past 2 weeks as well... How do I know how much to feed my tank or is something else going on?


_________

10 gallon desktop tank w/ Emperor 280 biowheel. 6gal sump/fuge with macro alge crabs snails, etc...Coralife 96W 50/50, 10 lbs of live rock, DSB w/live sand and Aragonite. About 10 blue and red legged leg hermit crabs, 5 turbos, emerald crab, 1 blue damsel, a tank raised false percula clown, dwarf zebra lion, long tenticle anemone, a few green hammer corals and a 2green hairy mushrooms, green star polyp, red ring, green and orange zoanthids.

Temp is 76, SG 1.021 and constant... I transfered him into my fuge which is loaded w/ pods. My understanding is that pods are the prefered food for scooter dragonettes...

Any other ideas?
