Hello all:

  I am looking at some more variety to feed my Fiji BiColor Foxface and Naso tang.  Both are somewhat large (6-8 inches).

  My current feeding strategy is the following:

New Life Spectrum Optimum Salt H20 Flakes - MWFS

Emerald Entre (frozen cubes) - TRS

I also give them one 3x5 (roughly) seaweed select green aglae every evening via suction clip.

What else should I be feeding these guys (I think they are guys??) to keep them healthy, happy, and alive?

Also, is the amount of seaweed select I am giving them enough?  They really plow through it in a matter of an hour or so.

Sounds like you are feeding them enough, but how do the fish look? If they look fat and healthy then I would say that is plenty. I also feed my fish brine and mysis shrimp and , when I have it... I feed them Adams gumbo also. (Hint, Hint)

I have four tangs and a rabbitfish and they go through a 3x5 sheet of nori in about 2 minutes.
