1.Do they molt?
2.Can you have more than 1 in a tank?
I have two answers Yes and let me think now, YES
Never had them bother feather dusters (don't have clams), but have seen them eating coralline algae ~ everyone of them I have had is different in both attitude and appetite!
i had one that literally pounded on my snails if it caught one....was reluctant to ever get another but now i have two new ones and they are very docile and just mind their own business eating bubble algae, hair and everything else off the rocks....i think i am gonna get 2 more.....they usually are visible at night and under the rocks during the day
I got 2 in a 55gal. 1 has got to be as big as a half dollar and another is starting to get there. They are getting big enough that they reach out and try to grab passing fish sometimes.

I put one in my 46 bowfront on Saturday and haven't seen it since. Not sure if I need to be more patient or go looking for it's dead, decaying carcus.
Not surprising, based on my experience with them. They are not out in the open like my hermits and I can go days without seeing one of mine. Then, I take a look and there they are going about their business, peeking out from behind a rock.
