Tang Food

[Morri]

What does everyone use to feed there Tang communities ?

Mine will be made up of Cyps, Ventralis, punks, Synos

I feed mine a combination of......frozen brine shrimp in garlic, cyclops (specifically for the cyps for their tiny mouth and they go mad for it), spirulina flake, Tropical tanganyika flake which contains Krill and squid, normal tropical flake, frozen greenfoods, frozen daphnia and frozen mysis.

I feed them a frozen (defrosted) mix in the mornings (to include cyclops for the cyps every morning though) and then flake in the evenings, a mix of whatever I put my hand on at the time
I feed the plecs and synos a mix of Hikari algae wafers and Tetratabimin tablets every other day.

As above
I use a wide selection of frozen meaty stuff , the Tanganyika flake, also a good idea to give them some spirulina flale now and again, good for digestion

Looks like you`ve got a good selection

The Hikari algae pellets are good for the lucipinnis too, mine seem to absolutely love them. Brineshrimp in garlic is another good one, all my Tangs go crazy for it

I have seen on specialist Rift Cichlid Forums that New Life Spectrum is quite popular.
