Seaweed Select: Choosing Red Brown or Green?

[neutronics]

Which colour is the best?
And does only your TANGS eat them anyways?

I use green seaweed from the grocery story, it is used for sushi. My tang loved it. Other fish will graze on it if they feel like it.

when it gets saturated and breaks off, all my fish it eat and shrimp

I also use green seaweed. if your grocery store doesnt carry it, then try an asian market store. it literaly is the same stuff that is used to make sushi, i reccomend getting the large sheets, and not the small single individualy wrapped pieces, those generally have preservatives added to them. also, on your clip, i reccomend taking your piece of seaweed, maybe a 4 by 4 inch square, and then folding it in half twice. another words, instead of having one big piece on the clip, take that same piece and fold it in half, then fold that in half, then put that on the clip. this helps from the large piece getting tugged off and then floating and cloggin up your powerhead or drain. I have a powder blue and a yellow tang and they love it. my gobies for some reason also eat it.

I use green seaweed selects and my shrimp go right after it. The clowns could care less about it.

Look for "nori" at the asian market.

I also use green seaweed 'Nori" from the grocery store. My yellow tang, coral beauty and sixline wrasse play tug of war with it until it's soft. Fun to watch

Shouldn't the red one be more colour enhancing? just curious...
Thanks for the replies...i used nori too....the one for wrapping sushi....the tangs kinda like it as well as the blue-face angel...but my flame angel don't really care

I just bought a pack at a local asian store, 2 bucks for 10 sheets that are about 12 inches on a side.

I use green and red. Everyone prefers the green though
The PB and Koran are always first to it, but then my huma huma (picasso) joins in.
When all three are picking at it, it start moving so much that it looks alive,and thats when my lion come over to check it out.
He is quite the character, he gets right in the way , watching very close.....a piece broke off once and he sucked it in. It was like watching a 5yr old eat a brussel sprout for the first time, he wasn't too happy and finally spit it out. That's my boy!
