Tangs need lots of veggies in their diet to stay healthy and disease free. Try feeding spirulina flakes, green seaweed selects, and maybe even some brocoli or lettuce stuck in the tank on a veggie clip. It is important to make sure they eat right. My hippo started to develop HLLE from lack of vegetables. It's also a good idea to soak their food in some sort of vitamin like ZOE or Selcon before feeding.

Try the seaweed selects green. I have a powder brown and he tears into that stuff like there is no tomorrow.
