Feather dusters and flow

[somewherre]

I just upped the flow in my tank, and now my feather dusters are experiencing some respectable turbulance. To make the most of all the good food that'll be passing their way, should they be facing into the breeze, or having it come at them from behind? Or does it not matter?

Thanks! -S

Should make no difference what orientation they are kept.

Thanks - figured as much, but thought it would be best to check.

It should be coming from behind, though if the flow is the proper speed and turbulence it shouldn't make much difference.

That's all that matters. The worms are perfectly capable of moving their tubes or in their tubes to maximize their capability to filter food.

Thanks. I'm not sure they can move their tubes - look to be made of bamboo or something - but do think I will move one of them as it looks to be getting blown around a bit more than it seems happy about.
