    I don't have experience with tube anemones, but the feather duster seems harmless. I don't think they bore, so it might come down to personal taste.

    :edit: nice anemone BTW

    I have a couple in my tank as well. I was thinking I would remove them too but they are kinda cool and don't seem to be bothering anything.:)

    Feather dusters are totally harmless. No need to remove, unless you want to move it to another spot away from the nem. Then, make sure to be careful, as you can damage them.
