If you have one fish in the tank who will eat algae off the clip, they will often "teach"
the others by demonstration. In our tank, a surprising number (and variety) of fish eat from our algae clip, including all three angels, our mystery wrasse and cleaner wrasse, the occasional blenny, and of course, all four tangs.

Our big fat blue hippo tang (emphasis on the hippo) LOVES the algae so much that he won't let me get the clip back on the wall before he's tearing it out of the clip. We cut our sheets of algae into hand-sized pieces, and then cut that into strips (much like when you see a flyer posted on a college campus with little tear-off phone numbers at the bottom of the page). That was our solution to keep them from tearing the whole piece out of the clip, having that float around and go straight to the overflow. Learned that from a guy at Aquarium Designs that we saw cutting them that way.
