So i bought a feather duster and a clown yesterday, The clown is doing fine but i havent seen the feather duster come out or do anything really, What do i do from here?
Sometimes they take a while to get used to the tank before they make an appearance. I he doesn't come out in a few days try changing the location of the feather duster to a higher or lower water flow area... Can I see a pic of the tank and the feather duster just to see it's location?
Try moving it to the sand... They tend to prefer sand beds. How long has you tank been running for? I like the clown... Those polyps came with the live rock I presume
About 2 months and did the sand yesterday and nothing, And love that clown ill post a closeup tomorrow, and yes they grew off the rock. Looked around for them, they arent cheap i got lucky. Yellow colony polyps
The polyps seem to be doing good for a new tank... Good stuff! The lil algae is probably the tank still settling after the cycle period... It should clear up...
Just got back from work and he was open! I scared him when i got close but here is the tank now. The polyps and feather duster are closed because i just added some new live rock and got an emerald crab
The worm is right in front of the polyps he is in the san in front of that rock, Hes realy
Nice like a dark maroon color
That's great news guess he just needed to adjust to his new home the polyps look great and the crab is cool... What's the pink color fish in the back ground...? How many fish do you have?
I have 2 fish, 12 polyps, 5 hermits, the frather duster and now the emerald crab. The pink fosh is actually red blame my camera, its a long finned fairy wrasse.
My feather duster would only come out at night for the first two weeks I had him. They just take time. But I agree, needs to go towards the sand. If they are not happy they will actually drop the crown
Thanks, still in its beginning phases but its comin around, Snagged a
Pic of him opened up, Do they shed their tubes? Looks like he made a new opening and his original opening looks like its not being used anymore i posted a thread on here about it because my phone wasnt letting me put it in here for some reason... Silly iphone
