Added A feather Duster to My Tank

[reeftankdude]

Was at the Petco and saw this large feather duster for $19.99. Impulse took over and I purchased it. How do you take care of your feather duster? thanks all

They're filter feeders and will pull food out of the water column, ie: phytoplankton, tiny bits of brine, Reef Roids, etc.

Especially in a tank that young you'll need to feed planktonic/small size foods of some sort, but I'd expect that to be a more or less all-the-time requirement to keep it going strong. You don't need huge quantities, and plenty of other things are able to eat the fine particles, but phytoplankton and zooplankton foods of some sort (live, concentrate, dry) should be a regular item to feed the tank.
