Crosshatch Trigger eating algae sheets

dropped in a few sheets for my black and yellow tang and he just went to the rock and ripped a new one on the sheets. Didnt know they eat veggies?
 
I have found just about every fish in my tank loves the stuff from a melanarus wrasse I used to have to my pair of bangaii cardinals now.
 
I don't own a fish that won't eat the stuff; even my lionfish will eat a stamp size piece of the stuff. IMO, all fish we keep should get occasional veggies, like Formula II. .
 
agree with Steve...nori is a wonderful part of any varied diet...
my outrigger used to eat 2 entire sheets a few times a week- she would just inhale them while swimming backwards...was amazing to see...
 
Same my blue throat female eats it here and there. The first time I saw it I was confused but glad she gets her veggies :D
 
My crosshatch is a PIA with the Nori. I clip mine and attach to the tank with the magnet....that is until big bertha swims over and rips the nori and clip off the tank and she proceeds to swim throughout the tank with the nori and clip in mouth while the magnet on the outside falls to the ground. It has now become a game - when she swims over I slide the clip over in a cat and mouse game - which of course she eventually wins.

Maybe I should try attaching to a rock...of course she would probably eat the rock too....
