I did find out they like spinach zuchinni, broccoli

It must be very hard for them to find this stuff in
the vast oceans I am surprised they survived in there ;-)

BTW - have you tried live marine algae already?
Something like widely available red or green gracilaria,
ulva sp., caulerpa - other various species of "feeder algae"?

Feeding terrestial plants long term to marine animals
is just asking for troubles... it is a different
food chain - not all "green stuff" is the same...

p.s. this fish belongs to a large family of tangs with
similar needs: http://www.wetwebmedia.com/acanthurTngs.htm
