That's awesome. I got this one to eat some frozen today (I feed reef frenzy daily). But for vacation purposes it'd be nice to have her on pellets

A lot more common than you might think.

All of my fairy's have eaten nori or New Era Marine Grazers. They go to them just as fast as my Fowler's and Foxface do. Before re homing my Pylei he would be the first there, every time. Strange is watching Lyretail anthias track down bits that they all tear off and eat.

as carnivores, do you guys believe they benefit from a little salad in their diets? would flasher wrasse?

 

[FoD]

I'm a carnivore. I'm unfamiliar with salad. Please explain.

 

[m88a2]

salad is the bait u use to catch dinner

 

[evolved]

She wanted me to have salad as the food! No! Salad isn't food. Salad comes with the food. Salad is a promisary note that something good is going to happen... and I should just wait right here.

It's a bit of a learned behavior, and I tend to find the additives on the nori appealing.

X2 i don't think it's hurting anyone

I agree, the Pylei that was re homed was with me for over 4yrs. He still eats his veggies everyday according to my friend and when I see him he is still a vision of health.
