Thanks. I only feed twice a week because someone told me if we feed a nori everyday then tangs never touch an algaes on LR. Is that true?

No, not true. However, you probably shouldn't have algae on your rock to begin with...

Just nutrient management. Watch what goes in, frequent water changes, best skimmer you can afford and you're good. Easy
