Choosing the right Nori for Tangs?

[Hank The Tank]

I just purchased a Bristletooth Tang. Does anyone know if the Nori people use for wrapping sushi that is sold in the asian grocery stores is the same that is used for feeding fish; specifically for tangs? I just realized I have to supplement the tang's with Nori and don't want to drive an hour to the nearest LFS to purchase it.

I use Roasted Dried Laver and the tangs seem to like it.

I use the stuff from the store. Just make sure there is no flavor additives.

 

[Nemo&Friends]

yes you can use the nori from the asian store. Just make sure it is all natural.

I dont trust roasted anything as some have oils and preservatives. I strictly use juian sprung and Ocean nutrition brand

More than just Nori:
-Spirulina brine shrimp
- LRS Herbivore diet
- mysis shrimp
- small plankton
- Nori seaweed basted with garlic extract
- Hikari Marine cuisine
- Formula 2 flake and frozen
- Hikari veggie marine

Add selcon vitamins to the foods 2-3X per week and on alternating days, garlic extract for stamina and immunity health

I use two little fishies purple, tangs seem to like it more than anything else I’ve tried over the years

100 Sheets (6.7oz) Dried Kelp Seaweed Nori Raw Unseasoned Snack Sushi

Been buying this for almost 2 years. Both rabbitfish, angelfish and PBT love it. And it's way cheaper than 'aquarium' nori. Keep it sealed, it will slowly dry out. I only go through 2-3 sheets a week as I'm only home about that much to load the feeders.

I agree they won't just live on nori, as I use LRS and cubes soaked in vitachem and garlic. Also pellets from daily auto feeder.

This is good, I have found my tangs love the purple version more than the green. But it’s good to have variety.

[i cant think]

I just use;
- Frozen mysis & brine (3 cubes of brine, 2 of mysis)
- Natural film & short/long hair algae (I try to keep a form of either of these algaes growing on the back and right hand side walls for natural grazing purposes)
- Algae balls that I can’t remember the name of
The algae eaters I have in my main display;
- Magnificent foxface
- Twinspot bristletooth tang
And I have 1 in the nano;
- Linear/Lineatus blenny

I buy mine off Amazon with one day delivery. I am also a fan of the pre-made MassStick for my Kole.

Dried Nori from Amazon add some selcon my fish will eat 2 full sheets at a time .. I presoak my nori after letting the nori absorb the selcon

This is the one I use too, all my fish take a bite of it too.
