Mimic Tang

Phixman · 06/14/2018, 11:43 PM

I got a small mimic tang this weekend and he didn't like pellets or flakes so I went to the grocery store to find some seaweed or Nori. All they had was Roasted seasoned seaweed. Will this be safe for the tang?

I wouldn't give it anything that says seasoned just to be on the safe side. While you're tracking down/ordering nori sheets you could put a leaf of romaine lettuce in there so it has something to nibble on.

Dont you have a Petco (or other department pet shops) near you? They all sell nori.

Walmart carries plain nori

I stopped by Petco and didn't find any as well as Fred Meyer, I'll have to keep looking. I'm surprised neither had any. I'll try to feed it Romane lettuce in the meanwhile.

Most stores will carry nori sheets, unseasoned, in the Asian food section usually. By Asian I mean the area that is more uniquely suited to the cooking spices and what not. If not you can also use Amazon.
