I read that livebearers like algae and I have a couple platies so I was wondering if it would be a good idea to give them my leftover nori from making sushi. Here's what it's made of from wikipedia: "various edible seaweed species of the red alga Porphyra including most notably P. yezoensis and P. tenera, sometimes called laver [1]." I can get the algae from the pet store if this isn't suitable, it's not that big of a problem, but this is easier for me since I usually have a bit of nori on hand.
