Will your Naso tang ever stop eating?

[bahamasmls]

I havent seen a post on this, only naso tangs going on hunger strikes. Okay my Naso tang i have had for about a year now. Probably one of the first fish i put in my new tank. From day one he has had a great appetite. He actually never fills up and will not stop eating, which is great meaning hes super healthy. I guess some what of a good problem to have!

My only concern is that he doesn't really give the other fish a fair chance to eat. Some fish just peck away and he pounds the food back...... I am not really concerned that he is growing like crazy as we are moving into a much bigger tank in the next few weeks.

Would love to hear if other people have this issue as well?

My lieutenant tang is the same, I’m not sure where all that food is going

My Naso eats like a horse for sure. Although this morning he wasn't at all interested in food and I was getting worried. Then I realized my giant dog was running around behind me. Once the dog was gone, the naso got his appetite back. Guess the only thing that slows him down is a 70 pound doodle.

My kole tang is the same way. I'm sure it would eat all day if I kept feeding the tank.

"No. I won't ever stop eating.......deal with it......"

Mines are always hungry too.....
I have the habit of feed them Nori before feed the rest of the tank with pellets or grounded shrimp. Even doing this, the both eat a lot after the Nori.
As the other fishes are fat too, I don't mind.
