Bob... I just gotta add that while I totally support your thinking outside the box, there is a chink in that theory...

Even though Tangs will greedily accept anything we feed them, if they don't get the fibre from the greens they can't process the proteins and will waste away anyways... I'm wondering what the key ingredient is of the Cleaner Wrasses diet and whether it's planktonic or parasitic, or if it's a nutrient carried within one of those groups?
