    Something on my lr. Help!

    I have these tiny feather duster looking things on my lr. They are like the feather duster but white or clear and tiny. Like the size of an pencil eraser or smaller when out. They are too small to have a body, only the extended feathers. They seem to move arround the tank too. Thanks.
