Rbta?

[b0gart]

I have 2 questions. I believe this is a RBTA. Am i correct? Does it look like a happy one? I acclimated it and put it in the tank a few hours ago, I thought they usually shrunk up when you put em in a new tank. Or is this like most other things in marine tank keeping where there are no absolutes and few usuallys. It has a nice grip on the rock and looks nice and puffy.

Looks pretty healthy to me. Although it looks kind of faded but that is probably from your camera.

I think it is a little faded, the light at the LFS was poo. I think he will do better here.

:yes: RBTA
The tenticals look healthy enough, I'd like to see the foot and body of the anemone but it looks good from what I see.
What is the difference between the LFS lighting and yours if you don't mind my asking?
Tried feeding it yet?

It looked like they had it under no more than 65w of pc and it may have been just florescent. Although it isn't great, my lighting should be sufficient. I have done a bit of reading on BTAs and I have him under 1 65w atnic(sp?) and 1 65w 10k.

That lighting may be suffecient to sustain him. I would recommend feeding it 2-3 times a week.
