I love feather dusters. I see pics of awesome ones, but the ones in stores are so lackluster compared to a google image search.

What are some specific types I can request? And who has some good ones?
The last time I requested one, the order form just said the color with no species name, and the color that showed up wasn't what I expected.

So far I've got two common ones, one leaning toward orange and one more auburn. I've got two dwarf ones, one white and red stripe and one purple and pink stripe. And my favorite, a "red and gold hawaiian" with two crowns.

What about christmas tree worms?

Coco Worms.
They're my favorite. The red and white cocos are pretty common and can be had for a fairly reasonable price. The all red cocos don't show up as often and are pretty expensive. I'd love to have one of those.
Are those the ones you call 'red and gold hawaiian'? Coco worms have two crowns.

To be honest on the x-mas tree worms I like the porites they grow in almost more than the worms themselves. They're so tiny. But pretty and unexpected. :)

I like the Coco Worms, I'll have to check them out.

My red-gold hawaiian looks like that, but has a soft tube like a feather duster. It kind of coils, which I haven't seen before. Don't know if that's significant. It's also rather large, since each crown is the size of the regular feather dusters in diameter, but has layers like the christmas trees.

:wub:

I already have one! I love it. I already liked feather dusters, so when I saw one I had to have it!

One thing for sure, it keeps me honest about target feeding instead of just dumping in food like a pig trough. I love to watch it eat.
