What keeps your tangs fat and happy?

Mine are loving the LRS products! I use their reef frenzy and dried seaweed sheets. Great stuff.

I give mine sheets of nori, rods food, CD apex feeder pellets 6x per day, and not everyday - mysis, frozen plankton, (more for coral but they eat some) oyster feast, doc's brew eggs, lps reef frenzy, baby brine shrimp.
 
I only have two tangs.....they get a half of sheet of nori from the oriental market every day. In addition they are right in there when I feed the other fish with mysis/homemade frozen/flakes/pellets/etc. They are fat and happy.
 
Having six Tangs to satisfy I feed quite a lot, (2) frozen cubes randomly from mix of Mysis, Spiro/BS, Blood Worm and Plankton 2X daily and 1-3 feedings daily of NLS pellets medium and micro or Hikari Seawead Extreme pellets medium and small. A mix of Red,Brown and Green Nori 3-5X weekly.............. THIS is why my Corals grows so well.


Cheers, Todd
 
Where do you get the brown nori?
 
I feed NLS pellets almost exclusively, besides frozen foods (LRS, PE mysis, cyclopeeze). I have a powder brown and squaretail bristletooth tang, a scribbled rabbitfish, and a potter's angelfish. No nori for any of them.
 
2 yellow tangs and I feed anything from live black worms to dried algae strips... Seem to enjoy a variety.. Even the occasional pellet!
 
My Caribbean blue tang liked the nori I put out for him. And he always takes it all around the tank in circles haha
