Do all BTAs shrivel up once a day?

[Vinh]

I have an RBTA that seems nice and healthy. Great color and extension throughout the day. Towards the end of the day like clockwork it shrivels up. It's a sight to see two clowns going to town on a shriveled up anemone. When it's in a shrunken state it doesn't lose color and the foot remains attached to the rock. I've read this is normal but I'm curious if this happens to all bubble tips.

When I had mine before I gave it away it always seemed to have a schedule. Normally staying shrunken most of the night as well, but big and spread out during the daylight hours.

Yeah. It's pretty common behavior for them
