What fish will eat those tiny feather dusters?

[Gripenfelter]

My tank is being over taken by them.

What will eat the tiny white feather dusters?

6 line wrasse?

Peppermint shrimp?

Arrow Crabs?

Copper Band butterfly.

[Reef Pilot]

I have Pearlscale Butterfly fish that cleaned out my tank of aiptasia, and am sure they would eat feather dusters too.

[Gripenfelter]

I have a reef tank with lots of coral...so no butterflies.

I had a longnose butterfly that destroyed my worm population in about a day but never touched any of my corals. Fogiceps are reef safe for the most part.

My Yellow Tang lunched on the few I had

[jagermaier]

My flame angel used to eat them when I first put him in but he doesn't seem to anymore. However I like to have them in my tank as they are a good natural filter for the water.

Yellow tang that eats feather dusters??...

[The Grizz]

Bought a CBB from a fellow reefer and it took care of my major infestation of those little buggers as well as any apitasia.:biggrin:

Copper band butterfly. Mine didn't bother the corals at all but definitely took care of the feather dusters. Tough to keep alive though unless you feed frozen food daily.

IF feather dusters were a problem then I might as well nuke my whole tank. I'm completely overrun with them. One of the LRs is white in appearance it's so full of them.

If anyone needs some food for a finicky CBB just let me know.

+1 on Cbb taken care of feather dusters. Never touched a piece of coral

[Lampshade]

My coral beauty cleaned out my tank of those and clove polyps. He died last week in my power outage and they are already getting plague like again.

I have a coral beauty and yellow tang. They don't touch them. They are growing on my corals so I want to get rid of them.

Well if they are returning after only one week and are already a plague, I guess your coral beauty did not really cleaned them out at all...he probably just bothered them so they would retract temporary.
