    So after my copper accident my clowns seemed out of place without their anemone. So I picked up these 3 beautiful RBTA from a local reefer. They seem to be doing great.
    First pic is right after I put them in just to show color. Then 2 days after.
    Thought the last pic was worth sharing. :)
    Found them sleeping like that. :p

    Looks good! I'm glad the anemone hosted them so quickly!

    Anyone know why these anems do not have tentacles in the middle? My last one was covered. These only have them around the edge.

    Very nice, I hope they do well. I'd be a little nervous about copper in the silicon and rock.

    I am running cubrisorb to pick up any leached copper. They have been in the tank for 4 days now and show no sign of stress. Also have a horse shoe crab in the tank for almost 2 weeks now with no issues.

    Both of my RBTA will show more disk than tentacles through out the day. When I notice them stretching then I feed them which is a few times a week. Nothing to worry about though. Nice add BTW.

    Idk really. Its only the size of a quarter maybe half dollar. Will decide down the road if it lives that long. Will take a while to outgrow the 125 lol
