Yeah, I find my fish love the NLS pellets too.

1/2 sheet NORI every day - primarily for the Naso Tang, who seems to be the only hard-core vegan in the tank.

Once daily feeding of Ocean Nutrition mini pellets (3 tsps)

Once daily feeding of a chopped mix of: a clam, a shrimp, and some Octopus,Squid or fish. (That seafood mix that you can buy at T&T)

In terms of volume, it might be equivalent to maybe 6 frozen food cubes per day. The blue throat triggers can really eat!

I feed pellets twice a day, just a small pinch each time for my fish. Every other day I spot feed my acans and suncoral, sometimes my hammer with PE mysis. For the filter feeders I give them a mixture of frozen cyclopeeze and reef roids, those are the days when I dont feed mysis.

Do clownfish like nori? I dont have anything else right now, I just upgraded

My clowns have never taken to nori, but that probably doesn't mean all shun it. The tank they're in gets nori maybe once every week or so for the CC stars they share their tank with.

I feed once per day, some frozen mysis (1 teaspoon or 5ml approx), some flake or pellets (I cycle through a different one each day), and about 1/8 sheet of nori. I wish I could feed the frozen a little less because it's pretty rich stuff but it's the only food (besides clams or oysters or mussels) that my CBB will eat. (I've tried everything on him!!). Just so that his diet isn't completely monotypic I do occasionally offer some kind of shellfish from the market. (I'm sure this is real great on the bioload but what can you do.)

I feed my fish twice a day, nori in the morning and frozen mysis or ON pellets in the evening. I used "Aiptasia Control" to eradicate Aiptasia on my LR, never saw it again. The product was recommended by Wendell of OA.

So it sounds like I'm right in line with the majority and there has not been some mystery feeding method I have missed. Thanks for sharing all
