Would a feather duster be ok?

[sillyqueen]

Hi again! I got my Damsels out...now I have a Yellow tang (soon to go, I think), a LawnMower Blennie and a FireGody. Good cleanup crew too including 2 brittle stars and a pencil Urchin.(snails and turbos too)
My lfs is gettin a shipment in Friday. Im leaning towards a purple fire goby and maybe a feather duster. Would this work?
Thanks!

Hey,
Both are fairly hardy and shouldn't be a problem for you. I don't know what your set up is, but feather dusters do well once they settle in. You may not see the head right at first so don't panic.

I had a couple of feather dusters and both died on me. What I noticed was that both my flameangel and sailfin tang started pecking on it. Their feathers also started to fall apart and became weak.

i thought about getting a feather duster but i was wondering if they require any direct feeding????

My lfs said they filter stuff out of the water..little things that come out of your l/r and stuff.
Maybe I'll try just one (maybe if theyre inexpensive enough, that is) and see how it goes.
