Feather Duster Question

[MinnReef]

Would it be dumb to have a nano dominated with differnt kinds of feather dusters, will NOT have coco worms. Just mainly Sabellastarte sp and Sabella sp. and I plan on feeding reff nutrition oyster feast, R.O.E, and phyto. Tank is a marineland 5G that I will do nearly 100% WC (hopefully the macroalgae will help with nutrients) once a week.

I don't think it would be dumb at all. Consider culturing your own phyto though as you will save lots of money and its pretty easy (iso or tetra would work well for this). Also, you may not need to do water changes that much if you have a decent amount of macro. Are you gonna have fish?

I might, I feel like a fish could annoy the dusters too much. I'll look into culturing phyto too

Do it. I am debating adding a few to my 60g but I am concerned my yellow coris wrasse will eat them.

You could add a small fish. Something like a clown goby pair or a goby and pistol shrimp.


Fun fact, one of my clowns will host a feather duster I have lol

Personally I would think the yellow coris would be fine with the larger feather dusters.

I have a feeling it is just the small christmas tree worms and such that it eats.
