Tons of it actually - Tangs have the long digestive tract necessary to consume veggies and though will heartily eat lots of protein rich and fatty foods, (mysis, brine, cyclopeze etc..), they will wither and waste without their required fibre. Normal established reef aquaria will provide most of the algae these guys require to graze upon unless you have too many grazers... considering the algae problems I've been having lately, I've considered cramming 50 tangs into my 135.... whaddy'all think?
