Feather Duster being attacked!

[systemfan15]

Hello, I just got back from boot camp and I of course wanted to get some more stuff for my tank LOL. So i Bought 2 locally bred percula clowns, and a feather duster. The duster is doing fine, attached itself to some live rock even. The problem is that my blue legged hermits keep picking at the feather dusters "tube" will this harm the feather duster or is this "tube" just a protective casing?

The "Tube" is just the worm's home. The crabs should not hurt it at all. They most likely are just picking edible organisims that are on the tube. No Worries.

k thank you. It just worried me becuase the hermit crabs were even picking at the opening in the tube.
