About this item

Mini Fire Feather Duster Colony

Mini Fire Feather Duster Colony (Sabellidae sp.) is a striking filter-feeding marine invertebrate known for its vibrant feather-like crowns that extend outward in a circular fan. This variety displays warm red, orange, and pink tones that create a glowing “fire-like” appearance, adding bold color and movement to reef aquariums.

Each colony consists of multiple small tube-dwelling feather dusters anchored to hard substrate, extending their crowns into the water column to capture fine suspended nutrients. These responsive invertebrates quickly retract when disturbed and gradually re-open once conditions stabilize, creating a dynamic and interactive display within the aquarium.

*Note: Mini Feather Dusters typically measure approximately 0.5-1" in length.

Available Options

Starter Colony (3 Feather Dusters)

Small grouping of approximately 3 miniature feather dusters. Ideal for establishing colonies in new or smaller systems. Perfect for observing natural extension and feeding behavior.

Mature Colony (10+ Feather Dusters)

Larger established grouping with 10 or more individuals. Dense, full display with multiple extended crowns. Great for immediate visual impact in reef aquascapes.

Care Information

Lighting Low to Moderate
Water Flow Moderate
Placement Rockwork, rubble zones, or low-flow areas
Care Level Moderate
Growth Rate Moderate
Feeding Filter feeder (phytoplankton, micro foods)

Special Considerations

Mini feather dusters require stable water conditions and consistent availability of fine suspended nutrients to thrive. Due to their smaller size, they may be more sensitive to fluctuations and may retract more frequently during acclimation. Gentle, consistent flow helps maintain full extension and feeding behavior.

🌱 Propagation

Mini Fire Feather Duster Colonies may expand over time through natural colony growth and tube development, successfully reproducing in aquarium settings:

  • New individuals may form within established clusters under stable conditions
  • Colonies gradually increase in density with proper feeding and low stress
  • Growth rate depends on nutrient availability and overall system maturity
