You should not be feeding any of your saltwater fish fresh water feeder fish. They are non-nutritional food source and an easy way to send your fish to a young death with fatty liver disease.

No, feeding your fish feeder fish would be like you eating McDonalds very day. Did you ever see the movie "Supersize Me"? Just like that if what you are mainly feeding your fish is feeders.
Especially for tangs, who not only are going to get fatty liver disease faster, but will get head and lateral line disease as well.

yeah, every so often i guess is okay, but, what's the point? Why waste a feeding on something bad if you can give them something that they like just as much with much more nutrition? They don't need the feeders, so why risk getting them used to them?
