Default Cant remember the name..

I cant remember the appropriate name of the mini featherduster like things. I know there is a proper name and they arent exactly feather dusters. They dont seem to grow tubes out of the rock like a feather but they have the same feathery head. Anyways I found a RED one today. Is this common? Ive only seen the glass like ones until today. Heres is the best pic I could get , click on the yellow bar to upsize it and see it better.

Yeah, thats a small feather duster. I have had that one for almost 4 years now. Most are not that large. That is probably what you have if thats what it looks like. A mini-feather duster. If you look here: http://www.reefbuilders.com/forums/i...tchhikers.html

There are 2 sites in the first post. It should give the name.
