Tiny bta

[graeve11]

So I got a TINY bta from lfs and he told me to put Tupperware with holes in it over top until it gets established. Now thinking, did he mean established as in like a week when it’s comfortable with my tank or until it gets it’s foot in the rock that it’s on? He seems to have found a spot because he barely moved and now he seems to be stationary, I’m going to put the rock back on my rock work so he can move freely to where he wants. When I does this should I put it in very low flow because of his size? I don’t have a picture I’m out work I can post one to follow up later

You can place it in/with rubble rock and allow it to adhere to rock then place in an area with moderate light and water flow

As long as its attached to the rock, I wouldnt worry about adjusting flow. It will move if it it wants.

Sounds good. I’m gonna put the rock in low flow at first so it can do what it wants but start it safe

That will work.

Little worried about it going behind?

Looks fine in the pic. Not sure what you mean going behind.

There’s a gap between the wall and the gaurd

Doesnt matter as long as nem cant get in the powerhead. Move it over a bit if you are concerned.

So it’s been 4 days now doesn’t looked bad but the last two mornings it has pooped out a brown ball. I’m guess it’s zooxanthellae? Is this just part of adjusting?
