What fish will eat those tiny feather dusters?
My tank is being over taken by them.
What will eat the tiny white feather dusters? 6 line wrasse? Peppermint shrimp? Arrow Crabs?

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

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 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.

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