GBTA looking weird.

Ok well its been a bit now and the GBTA does look like its doing better. However he just seems to remain in this little live rock cave/alcove and honestly doesnt even look like he is recieving any to much light at all. I dont see why he wont move out of that location.

 

Too much flow/not enough? It might like indirect light over direct so it's trying to hide t avoid the direct?

Not all nems like strong flow or lighting and will move until they find a place where they're comfortable. Just make sure it's not shrinking (fully inflated size). You might also try target feeding a small chunk of meaty food occasionally.

 

I feed my condylactis raw shrimp and it loves it. However everytime i feed the GBTA it doesnt really have that real feeding response, almost like its pushing the shrimp away.

 

IME, condys will eat most anything. BTAs, however, are a bit more finicky; Mine would only eat mysis, clam, squid, and small silversides.
