    I decided to take it out and put it in a tupperware. I put the food directly on its head and after about 30 minutes, it finally came out and ate. I think I'm going to do it this way for a while.

    It is a pigmy angelfish. Greedy little thing. I have to block it out when I am feeding or else it will steal all the food.

    Once you put it back into the tank, you can cut a bottle in half and use the top half to cover the coral. That way, you could spot feed it through the top without any fish stealing the food.
