My tangs rip the nori of violently too but my foxface is really carefull not to waste a bit...maybe just their thing. As long as he is eating something. Keep an eye on it, maybe try to soak the mysis in garlic. My foxface loves caulerpa, never lasts long

He's still getting used to his new home. As long as he's picking at the rocks I wouldn't worry right now. Some have a preference for veggies and ignore mysis...
