Double crap!!!! if you dont have super accurate salinometer dont try dropping saline. check to see if saline is elevated at all too? Higher saline=higher stress levels on fish. Anything over 1.25 not so good

Agree with the above posters. The fact that your Naso is picking off your rocks is a good sign.
Our Blond doesn't like the purple or red, Julian Sprung seaweed. Loves the green sushi nori that we get from the grocery store and mixed with garlic.
In general, the Naso is a laid back tang. Took ours close to a month to start eating heavy, now goes through a full sheet a day along with a meaty meal.
With other tangs we had to grind shrimp into rubble rock to teach them to eat. Knowing where the food comes from is part of the battle.
