Funny that you metion the purple ones because it seems that those are the ones that always threw their crowns and died, although I did find one behind my tank that had re-grown his tube. I have been able to keep the tan ones, green ones and my flame without any issues at all. Coincidence ? I don't know! I also noticed that if I placed one where I wanted it and it wasn't happy it would move and if I continued to move it back it would stress and blow his crown and crawl off to never be seen again. Thats my input on the feathers...hope you find some solutions.

Yeah, my brown feather is doing great so far and he is right next to the purple one. No one has blown their crown, but seeing purple slither out was crazy.
