i got me my 1st tang last week it is the yellow tang as i have read the most hardy and easy to keep tang. my question is the mention of greens in his diet are we talkin algae, seaweed, lettuce, spinach, romaine, i live in an area where there are only 2 lfs and 1 petsmart within a 115 mile radius. 1 lfs is very small ( this is the 1 i shop at most the owner and i are kind of learning the sw game together,but his fish survive and are healthy ) the 2nd store was the only ticket in town so they charge anything they want too charge, filthy store, fairly knowledgable staff, but the fish i have got from there before seem to have a bad survival rate (this may, and probably, or at least a strong possibility could of been my bad due to overcrowding/greed of lots of fish, and not putting fish in a qt when purchased, tank crashed everything but my blue-devil damsel died, i still have scooby he is a good peaceful damsel ) the 3rd is the petsmart chain and they sell very limited saltwater supplies no fish.i did get my tang, and a golden headed sleeper gobie at the 2nd store mentioned as that is the 1 closest to me, and now 1 have quite a bit more expeirience and they do have a pretty good selection and the store has been cleaned up some, but back to question this tang is my 1st veggie eating fish as i have not seen him eat the mysis, but have seen him peck at algae pellets/wafers and at my lr and for the tang police it is in a 150 6ft. tank. have a good day all responce welcome tobin :notsure: :happyfish
