Wondering what people think is the best feeder for Nori. I bought the Two Little Fishies with magnet clip and two plastic mesh bags but the bags wore out very quickly, I really don't want to spend $17 every few months, any suggestions?
 
There's no clip, just a button that goes through both sides of the plastic mesh bag. Worked great until the holes for the button got stretched out, now they pull the whole sheet out and make a mess, defeats the purpose, I might add well just throw the nori in the tank.

My last change in my approach is that I glued the cheap $3 suction cup clip to an old magnet scraper. It works pretty darn good; and if/when it breaks, it’ll cost $3 to replace.

But lately, I use scissors to slice my Nori sheet in strips ~2” x 0.5”. My tangs love these bite size slices and slurp them down like spaghetti. I just pre-soak them in tank water when I’m doing the same with the other food, so that the strips won’t float.
 
I had magnetic clip and never encountered any issues with it. It is great.!
 
Braided fishing line tied beteeen brace and the clip works for me. I used to find my snails munching on my nori when i was using a rock or side clip. This is easy access and practically unseen when it is empty.20190908_162003.jpg

I use this clip on 1 inch glass, I put two full sheets of nori folded 4-6 times and clip it for about 20 fish hungry tangs. Size of fish ranges from 3- 7inches. So far it’s been working great for me. I can imagine when fish gets bigger this method may not work because of magnet strength
