Any suggestions for a tool to pick up dropped food? Only a 4 gal tank, dont want to always be reaching my hand in there LOL.

Perhaps a pair of long tweezers?

for 4g, I'd use straws....
use your finger block one end of the straw, push it under water with the other end target at the crap. This keep the air remain in the straw;
release finger, air inside no longer holds, creating a suction force to vac the crap out;
block the same end of the straw with finger again.
transfer the dirt to the nearest plotted plant.
