ok little video update... sorry for the attinic explosion. Trying to show all the different color of BTA's. So I have 3 sunburst, 1 true rose, 1 neon green, and looks like 8 regular green. Check out the side of the gbta on the back left rock wall!

Going with 50 of them in my 180g!

Finally I have my first split!!! 1 of my rbta split, thought it just moved at first then while looking for my new anemone crabs I seen the clone!!
Grand total is now: 5 rbta's, 1 neon bta, 8 gbta!!! 14 total now... I a side note, the saddle carpet I ordered at the LFS, her supplier forgot to ship it. So I will wait till next week to get a true carpet s.gig!!

Why not split the ones you have currently, let them heal and toss them on your rockwork. Will save loads of money, unless you're already doing that.

 

[Sir Chris]

U can cut them in 1/2 as that’s what there naturally doing ripping apart a clone. But that looks like a quad color BTA the green oral disk up 2 oramge tips and 2 color mix’s between so called quads. Rainbows are rare and some company’s call quads rainbows. This is a rainbow so u know and don’t get run around.

 

[Sir Chris]

I have 2 coming a speckeled quad and a color morphed green with orange tips.

Well... im normally against that I rather they split natural.. and I dont think i could even get them off the rocks if I tried with their foots deep in cracks of the rocks.. lol

Little update.. finally got 1 of the 2 gbta off the rock wall... found a nice little crevas to drop his green butt in.. been there for 3 days now. Added a few anemone crabs, one found a buddy... one is a loner... haha

 

[timrocks311]

very cool tank. I'm looking forward to seeing more of then when you get your fish. This will be impressive when the anemones grow and fill out the tank.

 

[zagviper71]

Time for another update!! Added more rainbow BTA's yesterday, bringing the total count to 17 BTA's in my tank. 2 of the rainbows are 3-4" range, and the 3rd is suppose to be around the 12" size!! All 3 still haven't fully inflated yet and probably be a few days to getting acclimated to their new home. Also, my clone from my split last week finally came out of hiding to sit next to mom!

 

[zagviper71]

I think it is time to get the clowns!!! Or need a few more bta's?
