Featherduster

[boogie1986]

Hi,

I just recently placed a Featherduster on my live rock today, and it will allow it's "feathers" to extend for only a few moments, before quickly withdrawing. I keep it in a moderate to strong current. What could possible be the cause of the withdrawing.

Any help would be appreciated!

You might want to move it out of the current a bit....I don't have mine in "direct" current....more of just a gently flowing around area...that way it can feed off of the water column without being blown around by the water current.

It could also be getting used to where its at....they can sense change in lighting, movement, etc.

But I would try moving it first.....
