Thanks for that Thincat - wow cool pic! He is cute, must have buried his tube deep into the sand - mine had the same size crown but a longer tube. Your sand is really deep. Unfortunately I went to look at him last night after posting the message and he was stretching out further and curling his crown even more - then this morning he has shed it completely. The water has been an unstable temperature because the thermostat on the heater is set to 25 deg, so it has risen by 4 deg over the hot spell. Will that not be a shock to the feather duster? So, it could be quite natural that he has shed his crown then? There's me blaming the aiptasia, which incidentally has moved again overnight. How strange, could it be that whatever is stressing the feather duster is also stressing the anemone? I am going to be getting a pair of clowns after my holiday, I didn't realise they would use a duster for a host - how cool, wish you had a picture of that to show me aswell! At least my duster hasn't completely left his tube, that's what was worrying me. Just have to wait for him to regrow I spose. Thanks so much for your help and the great pic - I will check my params today. Do you think it is safe to do a water change over the next few days while the worm is 'naked'?!!!
