"Must" is probably too strong a word. They are classifeied as herbivores. They "can" and "probably" do better if supplied a variety of food, including meaty food. I feed my 4 tangs IO gel food marine blend as a base food, seaweed maybe once or twice a week. They have grown in size and girth in the two years I've had them on this diet.
