Yesterday I posted some pics of my clowns, tanks and anemones. Yesterday was also the fish time one of my clown fish pairs has finally hosted my new RBTA. Today I wake check my tank through blurry eyes and behold by RBTA split. I usually know when their about to split, happened in less than 12 hours. Time like this you gotta love this hobbie.

Are you sure it's two?
My RBTA has tricked me a few times only to find out that it's stretched out through a hole in the rock and has the appearance of being two and then I'm let down a day later

I'll be sooo jealous if you have two.

I think in these shoots you can see better that the anemones are moving away from each other, sorry had to add the sexy shrimp.

How big was yours before the split? The RBTA I have is about 7-8" across when it's opened up fully. Also, whats the easiest way to tell when a split is going to occur?
Congrats on the new nem too!

Sexy Shrimp are actually Sexy Anemone Shrimp. They have a symbiotic relationship with them sort of like a porcelain anemone crab and anemone, etc.
