Excess Nori

[TheReefGeek]

It would be better if all the nori was eaten, as suggested go smaller amounts of nori. You could try smaller amounts more often, they might eat more that way too.

It also depends on you system, to me some left over nori isn't going to cause a problem, but in smaller systems with smaller skimmers, no fugesetc, over time it might contribute enough waste to cause undesireable algae blooms.

Well, I have started feeding less, which seems to have solved the problem but has created another. I need to get gloves now because I am feeding more often and I barely get the clip stuck to the side before my Foxface comes at it all spines and fury.

[TheReefGeek]

Yeah I can hand feed my foxface he is such a pig for food, shoots right up to the surface of the water, I can hand feed him flake food even.

OT: Where can I buy nori in Calgary? What is it labelled as?

[Psyire]

I just buy 'Seaweed Selects' or Big Al's carry their own brand of packaged seaweed. You can also feed blanched dandylion greens if you really want.

I buy mine at Superstore
20 sheets for 3.50
it is the unsalted type in the green packaging found in the oriental section.
MUCH MUCH cheaper and the same thing
it is used for sushi

You can get nori in the grocery stores in the oriental section (it's sushi wrap). Just don't get the seasoned stuff

Drill a hole in a small piece of PVC, use airline hose or another safe type of cord and tie the PVC to your clip. Strap the nori on securely with a rubber band, attach the clip to the outside of the tank, and you'll never have to put your hands in the tank.
