RBTA Question

[r6acer]

OK I have had a RBTA for about 2 1/2 years and I upgraded to a bigger tank. He has been in the new tank for about 2 1/2 months and is doing very well except a few days ago the rock he was on had a cavern in it and now he is inside the cavern poking out both sides. He is about 12in when fully expanded.
So should I try to get him out or just let nature run its course?

Unless he is causing problems by being there I would let him be. He will find a spot he likes.

yea he has always been a great addition always stays were I put him. Just concerned but no hes not bothering me but the clowns on the other hand don't like it

LOL They will get over it. My guess is he will not stay there for long. Keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't decide to check out a power head {:confused2:} but other than that, let him find his spot.

I wouldn't mess with it.

It will come out when it gets hungry or decides it needs some light.

I think anemones are very much like teenagers. Think about it. They are a pain in the butt. All you do is feed them house them. They never stay where you tell them and pretty much do whatever the hell they want. Lol

I think you the that one dead on. LOL

 

[r6acer]

lol yea I think I'll let him be for now and see how it plays out maybe he will split again and come out of both sides

 

[r6acer]

update... It took him 10 days but he finally found his way out lol

 

[darth reefer]

He was bound to get hungry eventually, lol. Once he seems settled I would see if you can get it to take a small piece of shrimp.
