I feed my tangs just about every food under the sun. I soak it in Selcon and Garlic. I have had luck getting picky tangs, (Achilles, Black and Powder Blue) to eat Emerauld Entre. I cant tell you off hand who makes it but it has a mixture of foods in it alga and mysis. They seem to prefer this to anything else. Orange Shoulders are notorius for bubble chasing apparently to get the micro scopic alge film on the bubble. Well thats what I read in the coral magazine any way. A sign of hunger.
My Orange shoulder was quite fat to look at but still chased bubbles I started to feed more and he gradually stopped.
Good luck!
