Hey Mark,
I wondered that years ago and no one had a suggestion. In fact back then most Tang lovers were hanging a big chunk of terrestrial lettuce from the veggie clip. We now know that's NOT what tangs need. They will pick at it but derive little, if any, nutrition from Romaine or any other land based veggie. They require marine based veggies of which Nori is perfect.
So I had to come up with a way to feed without wasting the Nori. The following is a pictorial explanation of what has worked for me over the years.
First I cut the Nori into a strip about an inch wide.
Then I fold it in half and cut it.
I fold it in half again but, this time I do not make a cut at the fold.
Here I cut the 4 layers into thin strips being careful NOT to cut through at the fold.
Then place the prepared Nori as far into the veggie clip as possible.
Another view of the veggie clip ready for the Tangs attack. Notice I don't use the suction cup supplied. Super glued to a rock with a tie string, I can place it in various locations.
