PBT Food

What you guys feed your PBT besides nori?

Anything, lol. My tangs eat anything and everything that I put in the tank. They also seem to enjoy eating the poo that my other fish put in the tank.

I am feeding brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, rod’s food and nori. Don’t know how much she takes but she is getting skinny.

Mine would only go after LRS while in copper but now eats everything. Mega Marine Angel seems to be its favorite of what I offer, other than Nori

Might have internal parasites. Prazipro can be used in a reeftank and will take care of it if that’s the case.

 

[wiselyy73]

She looks healthy just skinny though.

If she's eating, but getting skinnier, I'd go with General Cure (Praziquantel + Metronidazole) and Focus, mixed into her food. That's pretty reef-safe, and targets internal parasites where they live.

This exactly!

Nori should fatten up any tang that eats it well I a few days to a week.

The Nori are so easy to break off from the clip and flowing around. Don’t know if she finished it all or not.

Agreed. I don’t think dosing prazi into the water column is overly effective against internal parasites, but mixing it with the focus will bind it to the food and get the meds where they’re needed.
