Besides the obvious.
Nori, flake etc. What else do you feed tangs to help with there dietary requirements?

I heard they will even eat broccoli.

This may be obvious, but make sure if you feed store bought produce that you wash it well to remove pesticides, or just buy organic. Maybe if you have a sump with macro algae growing you could try feeding the trimmings to tangs?
