So, I have a cleaner wrasse (who is actually eating VERY well) and one of his favorite foods is dried seaweed. This seems very unusual to me. Am I missing something, or is this fish just weird? :confused:
 
i have bar gobies that do the same

and the panther and louti groupers at work do too
 
Most aquaria fish are omnivores, and will eat seaweed. Unless otherwise noted as predatory fish (lionfish, sharks, rays, eels, etc)

Thats what confused me.
I thought cleaner wrasse ONLY ate parasites off of other fish, other than the rare few that accept other foods in captivity. :D
