You don't think he's eaten for the month? I would be that he is getting the food when you don't see him in that case. Or do you mean he just stopped eating?
What are your water parameters and what size tank? Try putting some zucchini or cucumber in the tank for him. My CAE love them.

None of my fish will eat algae wafers - I have a pleco, a bunch of coryodorus and a bristlenose I used to put wafers in but the angel fish ended up eating them. There is enough crud in to tank to keep them going.
Unless your algae eaters start getting thin (Look at them underneath, just behind the gills) I wouldn't be concerned.
