    OSI Spirulina flakes (twice a week) is pretty much all I ever fed my Coral Beauty and Flame Angels. Never fed them anything with sponge in it, nor any seaweed on a clip, and they each lived 6 or more years. Not saying to stay away from the seaweed or sponge, just that it may not be necessary since Spirulina is soooooo much better.

    Sure they are omnivorous.The more variety the better. The seaweed clip will be great too!!;) I used to feed mine once a day.

    So if I have green sponge growing in between my zoas, my Flame Angel will graze on it?
