    I have heard you can use nori from the asian food markets and it's just the same for less money than the ones that say fish on them. What kind do you get if you get it from there? NOT roasted correct?

    I buy the roasted but not flavoured or spiced, just plain roasted, from a local Asian food market.

    I also get it in the supermarket, if they have sushi it is generally around that area and only costs a few bucks

    I Use live stuff. My tangs prefer it any day over the roasted stuff. I was given some for free by lfs and its a never ending supply for them. Grows like a weed and i noticed a big improvement on coloration in the fish upon switching them to live nori.
