This came with some live rock I ordered and I'm just wondering what the exact name is?
It's only on this one rock...........

It looks almost like feather dusters.

They are a pretty colour !

ya, it's a red duster rock, perfectly fine, cool score actually. that'd run you $25 bux or so down here.

Cool! Of course I paid for it ...... Live rock is Xpensive!!

I thought it was a cluster duster. Perfectly harmless.

That is beautiful, hopefully it will grow a little bit!

They're Filogranella sp. hard tube feather dusters. if you have an established tank with sponges and dusters, etc. popping up on their own, these guys should do well. I'd put'em in a shaded spot to keep the algae off but in a decently moderate flow to bring the food to them. make sure to keep your alk/calcium in line too.
