The seaweed isn't going to spoil from that, but it may start falling apart from being soaked for such a long period of time.

that is my intention, breaking it to smaller pieces for easier consumption

is that recommendable?

i usually drip a few drops onto the nori sheet and spread it evenly and let it air dry, im sure the fridge would be fine.

Ocean nutrition seaweed sheets have garlic in them....

I use Kent garlic extreme and it says to limit to 2 gtts per feeding.

I was just going to say the same thing. I get the sheets that are pre treated with garlic. You can really smell the garlic so I don't think they skimp on it either.

If you freeze it it would "keep" much longer I would think.

no i don't freeze it, roughly how long can i keep the "solution" before the seaweed turns bad?
