Ok, you have at least three fish that are too big for a 90 gallon tank (Naso Tang, Powder Blue Tang and a Regal Angelfish). What else do you have in there?
How old is your tank?
Which order have you added the fish in?
What are your water parameters?

In your other thread, you told us not to tell you that you were overstocked. But you are. And until you do something about it, you'll have problems. That's just the way it is.

I can't reconcile these 2 statements... Do you continue to add more fish after you got the tank?

'so a 90 gallon built in overflow(My friend had it running for 3 years now I just moved it to my place around a month)'

'I had this naso for about 2 weeks'

from 2 different threads but it makes it sound as if you have added fish AFTER you moved the tank.

Okay...back on track...Stress is a large contributer to a poor appitite in a fish. We need to know what you are feeding, how often and how you prepare it. Also, water parameters would be a good thing to know...temp, SG, Ph, NO2, NO3, NH3 to start. I take it you did not QT this fish? Any other signs/symptoms on the fish?
