TorontoBoy 106 Posted April 2, 2013 We, as a family, eat nori when we do veggie sushi. Nori is the thin dark green seaweed that is the outer wrap to sushi and sashimi. When bought at our local Japanese/Korean store, 50 sheets of 7.5"x8.5" costs $7CAD. That is a lot of nori. One sushi roll uses one sheet of nori. The package says 100% seaweed with nothing added. I am no expert in algae, but Mr. Google says that nori, or seaweed, is some form of algae. I do not see the similarity with the stuff I scrape off the sides of my tank. Does anyone feed their goldfish nori? The irony is that people serve nori to wrap raw fish to eat, while I am contemplating feeding the nori straight to my fish. I believe seaweed comes from the sea, as in marine water, and our goldfish are freshwater. Would there be microscopic particles of salt left in the nori that might harm goldfish. I don't taste not even a hint of salt when I eat nori. The advantages of nori are: -it is in my kitchen -it is cheap -it is algae/seaweed with nothing added -if the fish don't eat it I will 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smegypsiren 1,315 Posted April 2, 2013 I believe people do feed it to their goldies. These use a veggie clip to hold it in place. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stephen Tang 2 Posted June 20, 2019 Indeed I feed my goldfish nori and they're loving it. I only wonder how long I can leave these nori inside the aquarium. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
