    the web is a type of worm that shoots that stuff out to collect particulate matter in the water

    im not sure about you feather duster. have you seen any part of his feathers anywhere in you tank. if not hes probably just hiding. try feeding with phyto later and see if he comes out.

    I don think its from a worm or a vermatoid snail (i think that what people refer to) I am worried that maybe it is somehow connectd to my feather dusters feathers coming off?? the strings kinds just float around...the last pic I just added is coming off a shell...

    I didnt know if maybe it was eggs of some sort or if my worm is dead
