I would if it were me would feed your tank every other day and feed a sheet of seaweed selects or nori on the off days for your tangs to forage on. That is what I do for my tank.

Can't really recommend how much, but I'd feed only once a day. Also, the tangs need vegetable matter instead of just meats. Tried seaweed on a clip for them?

How are your nitrates with that much feeding? I feed only as much as they can eat in about 2 minutes and sometimes every other day.

I usually feed flakes in the morning, and at night marine cuisine. I only feed enough that will be consumed in three minutes, same with the flakes.

Cut your feedings to every other day or even every 3 days. Feed only what is consumed in a 2 - 3 minute time span. Add a half sheet of nori (sushi wrap) every other day for the tangs (veggie clip).

That should do it.
