I recently added some new fish to my tank. 2 Yellow gobies and a FoxFace. I
was able to find out the goby diet is mostly brine shrimp /mysid shrimp. The
LFS guy also said I can also feed them flake. ( is this true?) The foxface
I was told likes seaweed and is pretty much a grazing fish. I have seaweed
already in the tank for my Coral Anger Beauty. Is there any thing else I
can feed him; does he also eat brine or mysid and or flake?
Thanks

I have a foxface that eats every food I put in there. Flake, pellet,
frozen, everything. Doesn't touch anything I don't want him to
though(corals etc). He's always at the very top when I feed them, h
can't get enough.

Yep they will eat a very wide variety of foods. It's not
difficult to get them to eat, but sometimes they eat
things you don't want them to eat.
