When you use "except" or "except for" as a preposition meaning "excluding", both mean the same thing - you can use either of them. For example, "I eat anything except (for) meat". When you use "except" as a conjunction, you can't add "for". For example, "I don't know anything about kangaroos except (that) they come from Australia".
