    nori, or dried seaweed.
    lettuces is there favorite but it lacks nutrition. broccolli is a alternative to seaweed but its probably best they eat what they do in nature

    It's a little sad that I don't actually know what I feed mine, but I'm PRETTY sure it's this stuff:

    Omega Sea: Marine Pellets with Garlic

    Although I may have switched. I'm just drawing a blank. I'll update when I get home. But my tangs are all fat. I have 3.

    i am unfamiliar with that product. is it just a dried seaweed?

    for tangs the best diet is probably a basic marine flake blend with the algae feed every other day
