    I woke up this morning to find my Feather Duster oozing a clear trail of wierd stuff all over the tank. its a clear sticky liquid.

    I have not seen the leaves all day.

    Can you get a picture?
    Leaves...are you meaning the crown or feathery plummage?
    Often they will retract for some time if harrassed etc. They will occasssionally drop their crown as well and eventually grow another!
    Somethimes that means death will eventually pursue but not always!
