How much to feed tang

[tzevchik]

I have a 6 inch blue hippo tang. I feed him til I see he is no longer interested. This amount seems like a lot, but he's the biggest fish I've owned. How much is too much. Any thought on how often to feed? I have heard everything from every other day to twice or three times daily?

Once a day should be fine. Are you feeding dried seaweed sheets?

My blue hippo tang has done great on the dried seaweed sheets fed daily, available at your LFS. She (Dori of course), also is treated to long stem spinach I leave in the DT for her natural grazing habits.

I feed mysis 2 times per day, minimal amount, and 2 leafs of Romaine Lettuce. The lettuce is left in the tank until they are finished with it. A small piece of the lettuce on a veggie clip should do ya. Or the Algea Sheet your giving him now.

Yes. I feed algae sheets, emerald entre, formula2, mysis, and Rod's food (cycling thru these). I also use zoe and garlic.
