Sure a lot easyer than the little clips or a piece of PVC on a string.

Very cool, I think those could be marketable.

I agree, you could sell those. I'd buy one.

One idea you could try for a "version 2", make the attachment clip part horizontal so it it could work with Eurobraced tanks.

Nice work on the acrylic, I've never had much luck with bending acrylic. Either I heat it not enough and it snaps, or I heat it too much and it discolours (once I had it even bubble up a bit).

Just got my nori feeder. As per the usual my regal was a bit shy and didn't recognise it as food until we left the tank alone. Then it was feeding frenzy as usual.

Great design with a nice snug fit. It even stayed on with my regal hammering at it and will be easier to take pics than with the DIY "PVC on a string" method I was using previously

Thanks Darren!
