did you just get him? what are the water parameters and does it look like anything is wrong with him? if he was fine before and was eating fine he probably had a stroke.

A cat got his tongue, or the cat got the Angel..

Not sure, but it seems like this may have been a "new" fish.
Just a wild guess....

pH wouldn't be an issue with tank raised angels unless the pH between the two tanks was different. How did you acclimate the fish to the tank. I usually float the bag in the tank while adding the tank water to the bag every 1/2 hour or so for about 3 hours.
