    So I have a nice flat rock perfect for a coral to be attached... only thing is the rock houses a 4 inch tall feather duster also on the same surface but off to the side.

    Question is.. Are all corals fine next to feather dusters and vice versa?

    Feather dusters might irritate the coral and vice versa, but will not kill each other. The feather duster may move if it doesn't like being in contact with the coral.

    I've got some HH dusters that are on a mushroom rock. They just elongated thier tubes to get above the shrooms to feed.
