I have had a Flame Angel for about 5-6 days now and he doesn't even attempt to touch the Powder Blue's algae clip full of Seaweed Select.

My flame and bi-color ( 2 seperate tanks) eat nori off the lettuce clip. I'm really not sure why more people don't go down to your neighborhood chinese deli and buy Nori. It's the same as other fish store seaweed products and considaerably less money. Unless you don't have a nearby chinese deli, then I guess you'll have no choice but to buy seaweed from your lfs.

i alternate between Formula II and seaweed selects. I bought a clip at the LFS that is about a 3" square plastic grid. It holds SS and formula II very nicely. It took a few days for my lemonpeel to figure out what it was, but now he's up there picking at it before I get my hand out of the tank. He chows down the formula II like it's his last meal. My Cinamon Clown even hangs out under the clip picking up the scraps.The lemonpeel not real big on the SS but he picks at it occasionally. I have a ? on nori. Does it get all mushy like SS does after a day? The SS IMO is a bit messy for the tank.

Beecher,
It holds together pretty good then again most of it is gone quickly so real hard to tell. My tangs and dwarfs just love it. I can't keep enough in there to last more than 2-3 hours. It holds together pretty good during this time period.
