Description

The Cluster Duster, scientifically known as Bispira brunnea, is a stunning marine invertebrate that will add a touch of elegance and natural beauty to your saltwater aquarium. With its delicate and intricate appearance, this species belongs to the family Sabellidae and is known for its distinctive cluster formation. Below, you'll find a detailed product description along with care requirements to ensure the well-being of your Cluster Duster.

Appearance: The Cluster Duster is a tube-dwelling worm that forms stunning colonies. Each individual worm is relatively small, with a slender, segmented body that can reach up to 2 inches in length. The segmented body is adorned with a crown of feathery, colorful radioles (tentacle-like appendages) that come in various shades of red, pink, or brown. These radioles give the Cluster Duster its unique and captivating appearance.
Habitat: In the wild, Cluster Dusters are typically found in tropical and subtropical marine environments, often attaching themselves to rocks, shells, or other hard substrates. They are filter feeders, using their radioles to capture plankton and small particles from the water.
Cluster Formation: As the name suggests, Cluster Dusters are known for their habit of forming dense colonies. These colonies can consist of multiple individual worms, creating a visually striking and vibrant display in your aquarium.

Care Requirements:

Aquarium Setup: To provide a suitable habitat for your Cluster Dusters, you'll need a well-established marine aquarium. Ensure the tank is equipped with live rock or other hard surfaces to which they can attach themselves. The aquarium should be well-maintained with stable water parameters, including temperature (around 74-78°F), salinity (specific gravity of 1.024-1.026), and appropriate lighting for photosynthetic organisms.
Feeding: Cluster Dusters are filter feeders. They extend their radioles into the water column to capture tiny food particles. To maintain their health, provide a constant source of small, suspended planktonic foods, such as phytoplankton and zooplankton. You may need to use a quality aquarium food pump to ensure a steady flow of food.
Water Quality: Regular water quality maintenance is essential. Keep the water clean by performing routine water changes, maintaining proper filtration, and monitoring water parameters, including pH, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels.
Compatibility: Cluster Dusters are generally peaceful and can coexist with other peaceful reef inhabitants. However, avoid housing them with aggressive or predatory species that may damage their delicate radioles.

Handling: Minimize physical disturbance to the Cluster Dusters and their tube homes. These creatures are sensitive to changes in water flow and lighting, so provide a stable and well-balanced environment.

Incorporating Cluster Dusters into your marine aquarium will not only enhance its visual appeal but also provide an opportunity to observe the fascinating behavior of these filter-feeding creatures. By following the care requirements mentioned above, you can ensure that your Cluster Dusters thrive and become a captivating addition to your underwater ecosystem.
