feeding dulse to tangs????

[carlos413]

I have a yellow tang that I feed Nori. I was wondering if dulse would be a good nutritional food source. I like to feed my fish a varied diet and if this stuff is good I like to give it a try.

I don't see why you couldn't as long as its not seasoned or have any additives.

what is dulse?

Its some kind of algae from the atlantic ocean. I found it next to the nori in the supermarket. I looked at the ingredients and its just organic dried dulse. I google search and found out some people feed this stuff to tangs and other sea veggie eating fish. My tang seems to like it but he's having a hard time tearing pieces off as its kind of has tough leaves. Ill will try and soaking it in some water for a wile and see if it softeneds up.
