I think between the algea on the rock he's getting and nori, he should be fine. How big is the fish? I'd just make sure there is always nori available for him

Try mysis shrimp.

he's about 5 inches long..tried mysis wont touch them...what about blood worms?thanks

the fish is naturally a vegetarian, if it isn't eating much protein, I wouldn't sweat it. You can get different kinds of nori, my tangs also eat dulce, which is another dried seaweed you can get a healthfood store
