I recently bought some zoos and it appeared as though mini featherdusters were attached. but I am beginning to think they are not mini dusters as when they open up and touch my zoo's, my zoo's either close up or close their tenticles that are being touched.
I just noticed that there appears to be 2 kinds, one with feathery tenticles and one with tenticles more like an apatisia.
but the apatasia tenticle looking one is not the normal color of this critter. As this one has a white center and multiple colored tenticles
it also appears that it can retract as I was just watching it, to get a better description, then went back to my computer to type, then went back and one of them were gone.
the body also seems differnt as it tan in color and I could not see through it at all. it appeared to be the same color of the zoo's when they are closed up.
the feather tenticles look more like bristle worms , instead of the crown of a duster
the feathery tenticles do nto seem to bother the zoo's so I assume that they are fine.
it is hard to get a pic bc they are pretty small. I know this zoo rock sat in the LFS for a long time, so I am thinking if it were the regular apatasia, whey would have been fully grown and easy to see. And I know the lfs owner does not try to kill apatasia when he gets it every once in a while because you can watch it grow in his tanks.
any thoughts?
