My yellow tang does not eat seaweed selects anymore for some odd reason. I even bought him some Julian Sprung's Sea Veggies and nori; and nothing. He was eating them (seaweed selects till about 2 weeks ago like made ). Now nothing.
I do feed these various foods: Frozen Cyclop-Eeze Bar, MarinePlankton, formula one, Prime Reef, planton, brine shrimp, Mysis Shrimp and Daphnia. All get Zoecon and/or Vita-Chem. He does eat these foods.
Is this guy ok? He seems to be doing fine and no one is picking on him. He DOES seem to be eating on the LR a lot…
Any help????

As long as the fish is eating, you should be fine. Tangs will eat a good variety of foods, and while greens are important, keeping the fish fed is more so. Often times, fish can lose their taste for a particular food. In many cases, after awhile, they resume eating it. Keep providing greens in the diet but let it eat what ever you're offering.
