Happy Bubble tip

[roundman]

Well I got a small school of small green chromis yesterday and this am my bubble tip was all closed up and now looks very happy. Also 3 short on the green chromis....

sigh can't make everyone happy

Wow... this would be the first I've ever heard of a BTA eating a fish... sure it isn't a carpet with a good disguise? LOL

 

[roundman]

How small were the chromis? If they died overnight, they may be gone by morning depending on your CUC.

 

[roundman]

They were small but this am The BTA was all closed up and I have never found him that way unless I feed him.

 

[weaglereefer]

Is it possible one died and the rest are hiding? I recently added 5 new chromis. Lost 2 the first night, the remaining 3 have made it 2 weeks now. Seems once they get past acclimation, they're good to go.

yeah, looks like and RBTA to me! I haven't heard of them eating fish either! Did you check your sump? My chromis somehow get sucked down the drain all of the time.

 

[roundman]

Nope not in the sump. Just gone. I do have a good clean up crew so maybe they ate them but the bta sure was closeup into a ball this am.

I guess the BTA could have snagged a dead/dying one.
