I recently bought a feather duster that has started to come out of his tube. I haven't seen his feather head, but it looks like its missing. Is he trying to find a new location? Should I just move him now?
Not a cocoworm. It hasn't left the tube yet, just extends really far. I fed it some phyto, which it seemed to reach up for. At least it didn't retract from it. I think I'm going to move it. Maybe it will get a new outlook on life.Is it a cocoworm? Sometime they lost their crown. A new one will grow back. However, if the worm has left its tube, it hates life.
I think you're right. I moved the whole thing to a different location, but it still keeps extending out of it's tube. If it senses movement, it retracts really quickly, but it's definitely exploring.I think it’s likely to leave its tube and will find a new spot. I had one totally leave and restarted in a diff area
It's not coming out as much now. Should I try to squirt the phyto near the tube entrance?Make sure to feed it. If it’s lost it’s crowns it’s going to need to be babied for a bit.
That’s what I did when my feather duster lost his crown. I didn’t put it into the tube but gently nearby and above. Mine regrew his crown (but then dropped it and died awhile later)It's not coming out as much now. Should I try to squirt the phyto near the tube entrance?
Oh No! It hasn't come out in the last 24 hours, but I can't find it if it did come out. I don't keep crabs or shrimp, and my fish weren't interested in it so it's gotta be somewhere.That’s what I did when my feather duster lost his crown.

When mine lost his crown, he didn’t come out much at all. Don’t give up, there’s still hopeOh No! It hasn't come out in the last 24 hours, but I can't find it if it did come out. I don't keep crabs or shrimp, and my fish weren't interested in it so it's gotta be somewhere.
