LFS for $10 for 5 sheets OR LAM (local asian market haha) for $0.99 for 50 sheets...hmmm, tough choice.
 
Every grocery store has an aisle with asian foods the Nori seaweed is in a package there
 
I feed nori about every other week and all 3 tangs are fatter than most I ever see. My blue streak cleaner wrasse seems to like the nori just as much as the tangs as well as my engineer goby when a loose piece drifts by :beerchug:
 
Pets mart has it as well as Petco!

PS: tank looks AWSOME!:greenguy:
 
I personally like the Ocean Nutritions seaweed. I use all three the brown,red, & green and just rotate daily between them. While the green from grocery stores can work, I don't mind paying a little extra becuase it has the garlic already in it. Buying garlic extract and trying to soak is really smelly and messy, worth the $ to me to just buy ready to go. For just 1 tang it's only $7.99 at SWE and probably will last you more than a month.
 
Yes. Content % are different, just compare the labels. If I'm not mistaken the brown seems to have the most nutrition. I do it just to mix it up a little for the tangs. No clue if it really matters for the tang diet or not and is not going to make a different between success or failure.I do it just to give a little variety for the tangs. While just my observation they do seem to go for the brown more agressively than the other two but they eat all the types and nothing ever goes to waste. I tried the red from Sprung and don't like how hard it is to keep on the clip becuase it isn't sheets, the Ocean Nutrition consistancy is the same for all the types.

ive fed tangs napa cabbage from the produce section of the grocery store. dont know the nutritional value but they seem to love it.
 
ive seen tangs eat frozen peas and carrots too. my scopas has had some peas but more often then not they dont all get consumed and you find them sunk on the sandbed
 
I've decided I'm probably going to grow some Gracilaria parvispora since it is proven to prevent and cure head and lateral line erosion disease. Will also probably grow a mix of Algae for a varied diet.
 
Algae of any kind will aid in preventing and curing HLLE, just got to feed it enough. Do you have a fuge? If not that live algae will be eaten before it gets a chance to grow.
