    I purchased a bta a while back and it thrived for a while. Over time, it seems to shrink in size. Living, but smaller and smaller. All my parms are in line. Seems as like I am missing something in the chemistry of the water. Lacking something. What could it be? Did have a sebae nem and it did awesome. Sold it though. Does bta have different needs?

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Are you feeding it?

    How old are the bulbs?

    How deep the tank?

    Can you post an image, sounds like a nem that is slowly starving.
