Does Nori provide enough Nutrition

My Yellow tang is now in a 8' tank and doesn't seem to come after the small spectrum pellets like he did in the 75g holding tank (probably doesn't see them).
So he is eatting 2-4 (3'x3") sheets of Nori sometimes soaked in Zoe. Is this enough nutrition for him?
Any other supplements that would be good/better?
Same Question applies for a Naso, Queen Angel.

If these fish are eating nori, it's good. It will provide some nutrition, but overall, a more varied diet is preferred. Try mysis shrimp, plankton (comes in frozen form), some sponge based and other meaty foods for the angel.

for the tangs yes. you can suppliment with selcon or zoecon to boost vitamins if you feel the need. the angel will need more.

No worries there my Queen eats just about everything (Shrimp, Angel formula, Mysis, Spectrum and Spirulina Pellets). Quiet the pig actually.
Yellow tang gets a few pellets, Mysis, etc, but not in the Qty she takes in the Nori.
