Cool Tools

[sharkie]

Hi!

I was over at Tim's house the other day to pick up a frag (BTW Tim, the zoo frag is doing great), and saw that he had some cool tools, in particular the tongs and a long blower. Being new to the saltwater trade and a sucker for aquatic tools, I was wondering what neat gadgets you had to help maintain (i.e. pick up coral, blow dust off coral, trap fish, frag corals, attach corals, etc, etc) your tank. :)

Special bonus points for people who have tools that serve more than one function. ;)

I have some really long stainless steel hemostats that I think I picked up at one of the tool vendors at the flea market. They are very handy for feeding and moving stuff if I don't have to go all the way to the bottom of the tanks.

I have taken an old flysawtter with the swat element removed and use it to feed nori to my tangs & cowfish.

works like a charm. I also have used chopsticks on occasion to snag a pesky hermit or re-right an overturned snail...
