My new Feather Duster ???

[cincinnati fish guy]

I am the proud parent of a wonderful feather duster. I am new at raising one of these guys and have a fairly straight forward quesiotn. How the heck do you get it to stick to a rock??
The guy at my LFS said that once you place it on a rock it will stick to it. Well my feather duster has some type of membrane at the base of the tube in which I've made several attempts to stick it to a rock and it continues to fall to the floor of my tank. Anyone out there who can help??

In Cincinnati, my favorite is Just About Fish in Montgomery (across from DeShea's restuarant).

WOW!....thats the place that I always go too...they are really really nice, and George is just too funny sometimes. I actually was just there last night to buy some Zoe and freeze dried krill shrimp. How much did you pay for the feather duster? I live like 2 miles from Just About Fish in Loveland.

I live in Loveland as well. I paid $14. What other LFS do you use?

Just About Fish is my store of choice as well. I live in the Steeplechase apartment complex in Loveland. So I'm really close to them and its easiest to go there. They also seem to have really high quality fish, and a very knowledgeable staff. I also like to get their ghost shrimp for my Flame Hawkfish...

Referring to the question you need to wedge the feather duster tube in between the rocks or something like that for it to stay in place then it will attach itself on its own. (don't smush it between the rocks just kinda set in a hole or crack in the rock somewhere.)
