Nice Beauty! It can be hard to get them to eat from what I have heard. May have to try live mysis and add some frozen at the same time. Others may have better suggestions.

what have you tried? what was the LFS feeding him?
Jena has hit some of the food source for them, they like the graze in the tank , usally looking for algae, so you can try the nori sheets,also they shoudl go after mysid shrimp.
Your LFS may also have a frozen food pellet for them, i know the one i had here did..

When I had mine it ate bloodworms and purple flake food, I could not get it to eat nori though for some reason.
