    RBTA Split and Fire Red Shrimp Molted Same Night. Good, Bad, or Indifferent?

    My Rose Bubble Tip Anemone has yet to have bubble like tentacles since I got it over a month ago. Shortly before receiving the anemone the previous owner told me it had split, mine being the mother. I got a fire red shrimp also about a month ago and it has molted three times already. Last...

    BTA Anemone Questions

    Hi, so I purchased a bubble tip anemone about 1 and a half weeks ago. I got it when I was in Houston, and brought it home to LA. I have a Fluval 32.5 that is just recently a year old, and I put an additional light on it (the Fluval reef/marine). And I’m still slowly increasing the light...

    Is my RBTA sick? Help

    Not sure what happened. My nem was super happy after I switched to more powerful lights- flow hasn’t changed much. He was in the same spot for almost 6 months and now he’s moved almost to the sand bed and looks… deflated? The only thing that’s really changed is that the clownfish finally found...

    Question about BTA and new hosting clowns

    Hello, I have a RBTA, and have had it for about 2 months. Super flowy and *was seemingly* doing awesome. My clowns never cared about it. About a week ago, my two clouds figured it out, and are in it like crazy all day long. And around the base of the anemone, I see some trochus snails. I've...

    Keeping BTA's in basket short term?

    Morning all, Was wondering if it would be alright to keep RBTA's in a basket in my 20 gal for a few months. I have the opportunity to get them nems dirt cheap and would like to pick em up while I can. I would be keeping them in a basket with a magfloat while my nano nem only tank cycles. How...

    Nano Build Possible Nano Nem / QT Build?

    I may or may not have been bit by the saltwater bug... Thinking about setting up a Nano (10-15 Gal) tank of BTA and some clowns. Would be using this as a QT tank for new frags (on a small rack) and keeping and propagating Nems. In the long term is this possible? I would be able to set up the...

    RBTA rarity

    Hey guys, I’m new to reefing and just got a RBTA. It’s currently wandering the tank trying to find a home and I’m looking at adding some clowns for it. I was curious if anyone can give me specific info on this anemone and possible rarity or estimated cost. The shop had a price board and showed...

    RBTA guts hanging out?

    Hi all, I have an RBTA that I purchased in the hopes my clowns would host it (and they recently have started to - yay!) However, I think its health has been steadily declining since I got it in November. It deflates and turns grayish about once a day, but I don’t directly feed it super often...

    Anemone Food

    Best food for RBTA? For now, I’ve just been spot feeding a lot of mysis shrimp about once a week but doesn’t feel like it’s enough.

    Is this a fancy RBTA or common rainbow?

    Have a bunch of these in my tank that all split from the same mother. Got it from a friend a few years ago and he mentioned it was not the typical RBTA. Anyone have a clue what this is? Thanks

    Anemone losing color

    I run two kessil360we on a 22 inch deep tank. Nems are on the rock structure at 12 inch high. Current schedule is making my black widow anemone lose their black color and white marking on the oral disk. Is it lighting problem or some other issue. Anyone experienced loss of color and marking of...

    Bubble tip anemone: bubbles vs stringy tentacles

    I've read in multiple forums that people are undecided about why some bubble tips are bulby and why some are stringy and my belief is that it has to do with flow. I have one anemone that's half way in to some flow directly from my wave pump and the other half gets pretty stagnant water. The part...

    RBTA Reproducing/Cloning itself

    My RBTA grew a second foot. Didn’t split like one would think but grew a second foot on one side that is attached now. Only showing one mouth on the original foot. So will a new mouth grow on this new foot? Insane! Just happened today. Anyone had this happen?

    Why does my anemone throw up at night?

    I got this BTA back in August and it’s grown a bit too. Overall it’s pretty healthy. Sometimes at night after I feed it though, it will just throw up all the food completely undigested. The pic I attached is currently right now and I fed the BTA 9 hours ago. For it’s size, I would assume it...
