Feeding tang said in a fish only system

[Leslie88]

whats the best diet formtangs in a fish only? I feed tangs the same in a reef or f/o, and the tangs in f/o always lose their pigmentation. Any thoughts?

I feed...

Omega 1 seaweed, red and green. They do eat it.

Also, add garlic a few times a week.

Am I missing anything?

That's a fine diet. Perhaps soaking foods in HUFAs or amino acids.

Adding more variety never hurts either. Larry's Reef Services has food that has a variety of ingredients.

Sounds about good!! I throw live brine in once in a while too give them a nice treat!

Live black worms and Nutramar Ova. Lose the garlic.

That Omega Seaweed doesn't disintegrate and get everywhere in your tank? Imo, that was the worst brand because it just fell apart. I switched to Julian Sprung's Sea Veggies. Even one of my wrasse and trigger and puffer eat it, but it's meant for the 2 Foxfaces. They sell a green, purple, and red variety. I only tried the green, but it doesn't fall apart like the Omega did.
