Brunnea Feather Duster: Graceful Filters for Your Reef

Add natural elegance and vital filtration to your marine aquarium with the stunning Brunnea Feather Duster. These captivating invertebrates bring dynamic beauty and help maintain water quality.

Overview

The Brunnea Feather Duster, *Bispira brunnea*, is a fascinating filter-feeding marine worm known for its beautiful, fan-shaped crown of radioles. These peaceful invertebrates typically form colonial clusters of parchment-like tubes, anchoring themselves to live rock or substrate. Their crowns, which can display varied hues of brown, orange, purple, or banded patterns, are highly sensitive and will retract swiftly into their protective tubes if disturbed.

Care Level

Caring for the Brunnea Feather Duster requires a moderate level of experience to ensure its delicate needs are met. They are peaceful and reef-safe, making them excellent additions to a harmonious marine community. Avoid housing them with predatory fish like triggerfish, angelfish, wrasses, or certain shrimp, which may nip at their crowns.

Tank Essentials

A minimum of 50 litres is recommended for the Brunnea Feather Duster to thrive. Maintain stable water parameters with a pH between 8.0-8.4 and temperatures from 22-26°C. They prefer moderate water flow to deliver food and require shaded areas on live rock for attachment, avoiding direct, intense lighting.

Diet

As obligate filter feeders, Brunnea Feather Dusters require a consistent supply of planktonic food. Regular, supplemental feedings of liquid phytoplankton and zooplankton solutions are essential for their health and longevity.
