    I am getting a yellow tang when i get some cash. I have some granules called nutrafin max marine complete food. Is this ok for a yellow tang's staple? Will it even accept these? The protein is 45% so i think that is too high. hey I have a bottle of kent "Zoe"(vitamin soak) that i use for shrimp for my trigger. Any staple diet suggetions?

    yea zoe vitamins will work.

    just feed it a little bit of of nori every other day and some flake or pellet food every day.

    you trigger may like nori too, so it may be worth it to have to algae clips
