    Well, since I have found myself rarely staying at my house anymore, i have decided to feed nori on a clip to try to prolong the amount of food available to my fishies. But they are not eating it! I added selcon and garlic extract to it, and still, nada!
    I'm keeping:
    2 pyramid butterfly
    1 Zoster Butterfly
    Majestic Angel
    Yellow tang
    purple tang
    Achilles Tang
    Hippo tang
    nobody seems hungry! they dont touch it.

    Get a piece of small LR, then soak your Nori in water until it is very soft.

    Lay it on top of your piece of LR & press it onto it as much as you can.

    Now throw it in the freezer over night. Once frozen drop it back into the tank.

    Tangs are grazers, they like to pick rocks. They arent always used to swimming up to a clip.

    Once they are used to eating it, you can try a clip again.

    Good luck

    yes I do use a rubber band to hold it to a rock, they pick at it and what the fish don't get the small snails and crabs will eat from it also.
    works good for me
