Great Amanda, hopefully things you need more of!
It was netting to attach to the lid I made from light diffuser panel so fish can't jump out and hose holders for my ATO systems.
 
This is the inaugural Funny License Plate drop of the day. These are plates I see on the way home that I find hilarious.

I’m thinking a blouse out of the netting for special time with the hubby and candle holders out of the hose holders for the same special time with the hubby!

How long do you guys leave it in the tank? Maybe I'm taking it out too soon.
Ready for another "Don't Follow Tim's Example" moment?

When I add Nori (a couple of times a year) I leave it in there until it's gone...

I rarely add Nori because my algae eaters eat algae in the tank. When I do add nori, I don't worry about taking it out. Something will eventually eat it? Hermits, snails, fish, copepods/amphipods, bristle worms, nitrifying bacteria... Something. Eventually.
