Heres are my BTAs - they are siblings and sit in the upper third of my tank close to the MH. The one in front is attached to the rock and the one behind has its foot on the glass

This is just an update...my LTA is doing great...however in the last few days, my LTAs tentacles are getting a little slender, elongated and more windy(not very evident in the picture) versus stubby and bloated. I am not sure why.....looks more flexible now and some tentacles are getting a little curled. I first thought it might be the light but I havent changed my lights at all....just wondering if this is a normal progression or if something is bothering it....any ideas?

Sounds fine. Sometimes a change in water chemistry/temp can have that elongated reaction. But it sounds like it is doing fine with the MH now, even reaching....You should be happy. :joy:
