Yes, they are small feather dusters that don't get any bigger. And no, they didn't help sell the xenia. My lfs set the rock with the dusters facing toward the back of the tank, so whoever paid the 90.00 for the xenia got them without even knowing they were on the rock. The rock itself is about 5x4. Pink pom poms bring a darn good price around here. More so then the ones in the first posters pic.

There's a place in N. Providence I haven't been to yet. Same thing in Seekonk.
Fintastic Fish....is a great store. I was talking with the owner and they are not closing. They are going to redo. He said they will have basically the same stock, but smaller tanks. I'm gonna have to check out "The Coral Reef Aquarium" .

I did just check out the Seekonk place a few days ago. Bought an Alkalinity test kit, some Hikari food, and a $15 ricordea (bright neon green).
Very cool store.
They had this writhing pile of large Nass. snails - way cool. Tons and tons of coral frags. Two of the nicest looking Neon gobies I've seen; I was very tempted since I've been eyeing that species for a while.
Glad to hear about Fintastic - much less traffic to get there than Rt. 6 Seekonk.

OMG that is expensive! I trade in frags with 3-6, 3-5 inch stalks for ~$10-15. They sell it for 30-$40. Attached is a PIC from my mother colony. I just ripped out about 40 stalks to the LFS and frag tank so it is a little bare. It grows like a weed in only one of my 5 tanks. MH/PC.

I want a ricordea shroom too, now I am gonna have to go there again. Did you happen to notice if they had any White and Black Ocellaris?
I want one and they are hard to find. I will have to call them.

Sweet thanks
