Moving Large Feather Duster during Tank Upgrade

[Rewd]

Has anyone moved large, established feather dusters? I've had these two for some time (over a year) and they seem to be doing very well. Have never moved from this spot. I am planning to Upgrade to a new tank obviously bringing these guys over, but I'm afraid to move them or accidentally damage them.

Unless the tubes are attached to the rock they're generally fairly easy to move. So you may have to gently separate the tube from the rocks or move it all together in one section. I've moved plenty of feather dusters and tube anemones and they're fairly resilient. Just try to avoid damaging the tube.

I'd bet money they are pretty attached to those rocks but I think I can move those rocks with them attached
