Best way to get Juvenile nori

[Tallison]

I just added a juvenile blue hippo to my 150 that currently houses 1 yellow eye Kole and 1 Yellow Tang. Both measure about 1-2". They don't even know the little one exist and if they do they don't bother him because of his size but I'm worried he's not making his way down there where I attach nori to a rock. Is there anything I can do to supplement his diet with some greens that he can pick at? I have Chlorella flakes but not sure if he'll go for it

Get a Nori clip to attach to the glass higher up where he is and broadcast feed some meaty foods

Simplest answer ... put some food where he is. (At least, until he develops some confidence.)

You can put small sheets of Nori at both ends of the tank.

You can also feed.

I also like Hikari's Seaweed Extreme pellets - they are small and soak up Selcon very well.

Hippo tangs are planktivores, so don't need their diet supplemented with algaes. If it wants nori it will go down and get it.
