Live Rock from store tank to my tank 15-20 minutes in watered bag. I don't think there was any die off. In fact the few baby feather dusters on the rock seem to extend more often in their new home though I fear for them as I understand they need an established aquarium to survive. I thought hermits would be a good idea to add incase any shrimp "debris" was still in the tank and I heard they were tough.
