Bristletooth Tang Feeding - Vegi-clip

[tottiforever]

Hello,

Having a two spot tang delivered tomorrow, and I’m looking for feeding tips.

I picked up a little magnetic vegi-clip and some nori. I’m assuming I should just leave the nori and clip in at all times to encourage grazing?

Any tips or additional foodtypes I should try? Currently also feed Hikari Marine A and S.

Thanks!

Be sure to change out the Nori with fresh. I.E., don't leave it in for 24 hours with the same Nori.

My Tangs also love Larry's Reef Frenzy. Frozen foods have less PO4 than pellet; although I use Hikari as well once in a while.

I hang my nori clip from fishing line in the flow to create a more natural look. Tangs also love meaty foods a lot of people skip that but meat is like candy to tangs

Do you have a refugium with sea lettuce or red ogo? If so these are good options to offer the tang when you need to prune back your macroalgae

I do. Just received some chaeto from y’all and looking at finally turning on the fuge light. Any harm in multiple forms of macro?

Perfect. Thanks!

My White Tail has never showed much interest in the algae clip. It picks at it every once in a while. I feed herbivore frenzy to make sure he gets what he needs.
