Quick semi emergency on featherduster

[ItouchedThebutt]

What do you do when the feather duster worm is pulled from the tube?

 

[saltyfilmfolks]

Put it in the sand or tuck it under a Rock. I belive it’s a distress response.
May be chemical or just hungry.

What about the shell? Do you need to get it back in?

 

[saltyfilmfolks]

No. It news a place to make another shell. It may or may not work honestly.
But time will tell.

Okay I'm only asking because my friend just bought 2 and on the way home one came out the shell

I had this happen before, a snail actually pulled off the "crown" or feather component that expands out. I left it as it was with the bottom tucked into a rock and the "head" where it normally was (although it was empty) and a new one grew back in about 2 weeks
