Overview
Dried green marine seaweed sheets for grazing herbivores — the easy way to give tangs, angels, rabbitfish and blennies the bulk vegetable matter they'd spend their whole day picking at on a reef. Pellets and frozen food disappear in thirty seconds; a sheet on a clip keeps a herbivore occupied for hours, which is much closer to how these fish are built to eat.
Green marine algae is the softer, more delicate of the two common sheet types and it's often the one that wins over pickier grazers — worth reaching for when a fish has ignored brown, or when you simply want to vary what's on offer rather than feeding the same thing every day.
Key features
- Green marine algae — a softer, finer sheet than brown, and frequently the variety that gets a fussy or newly settled grazer eating.
- Dried sheet format — clip it, weight it, or roll it into a feeder; no thawing, no mess, and nothing thawed leaching into the water column.
- Encourages natural grazing behaviour — fish pick away over an extended period rather than gorging, which suits the constant-feeding digestive systems of surgeonfish and rabbitfish.
- Supports appetite and colour in herbivores — a dependable vegetable component alongside your frozen and pellet feeds.
- Good for rotation — alternating green and brown sheets keeps interest up and broadens the diet rather than relying on a single food.
- Shelf-stable and compact — stores in a sealed container, takes up no freezer space, and is easy to leave with whoever's minding the tank.
What's in the box
- One 12 g pack of dried green marine seaweed sheets
Who it's for
Any marine system with dedicated grazers — a mixed reef with a tang or two, a fish-only display with angels and rabbitfish, or a smaller tank running lawnmower blennies and herbivorous gobies. Tangs and surgeonfish in particular should be getting green food most days, not as the occasional treat.
The 12 g size suits a single grazer, a smaller display, or trying green for the first time to see whether your fish prefer it. If you're feeding daily across several herbivores, the larger pack works out better per feed.
Setup & tips
- Clip it mid-water on the glass where there's some flow. Fish feed far more confidently away from the sand bed, and moving water keeps the sheet fluttering and visible.
- Start with a strip, not a whole sheet. Green sheets are thinner and break up faster than brown, so a smaller portion means less ends up in the overflow.
- Pull anything uneaten after a few hours. Leftovers break down and add nutrients you'll only have to export later — a clip is much easier to retrieve than a dozen floating scraps.
- Keep the pack sealed and dry. Sheets go limp and lose structure once they pick up humidity; an airtight container in the cupboard is plenty.
