    Bubble Tip Anemone losing bubbles theory

    I know this is a big mystery.. at least I have not heard of anyone solving it yet. One thing I have noticed with my BTAs if I don't feed them for a week or so they lose their bubbles and stretch out. As soon as I give them some shrimp or coral food they plump right up and get their bubbles back...

    Proudest I’ve ever been of my clowns

They’ve had nems before, never shown an interest, but this one, they seemed curious about on its first day, now they can’t get enough of it. I expected to wait months, not days for them to get into it. enjoy some photos of...

    BTA shrunk, turned white, been living this way for 6+ months?

    Okay... lifeline time. :) I got my BTA 5 years ago. Started around 3in fully opened. My clown fish immediately took up residence. For 4 years it grew and thrived up to probably 8+ inches across. About a year ago it split which was so amazing! One died off - who knows why. The other...

    Bubble Tip Anemone splitting now this happened

    Tank is 1 and half years old. Params are all good. Bought this thing from LFS while it’s splitting and I got it for a price of one. However, in my main tank it won’t stick to any rock, so I put it in a basket and then through the holes it started to come through and sliced some of its parts...

    Anemone Acting Weird

    I have had this bubble tip anemone for over 1.5 years, and it has done excellent, showing lots of growth in that time. The last few days, though, it has been struggling, going through inflation and deflation cycles 2-3 times a day. The times that it is inflated, it isn't fully extended, though...

    Will a BTA kill my coral?

    I believe my tank is finally established enough to house a BTA. The only thing is that I may have gotten a few (too many) coral while I was waiting for my tank to mature. Here’s a picture of my current scape, and I planned to trade in that duncan coral on the right side and give the BTA that...
