Remember your recently fragged zoos that put me in the hospital? :eek:

Eek... what happened with the the zoos??

I'd like to avoid the prying it off the rock route. This is the only survivor of three BTA's that I purchased from a fellow hobbiest, the others died shortly after purchase and each had torn bases due to rough extractions.
If I can't get him to dislodge peacefully I'm not going to worry about it too much. He'll just have to make do in the new big tank.

To move my BTA, I use slightly more water flow to move it. Have tried heavy duty water flow, but that just seems to make it hold on tighter. Have also tried prying it off, but that just seems to hurt it, so that route was shortlived.

The only problem with moving a BTA is that it will still want to find the right spot in the tank for itself where it has a solid place to attach, the right amount of light and water flow.

hope this helps
 

when i had on i came up with a good idea that seemed to work i used a kinda turkey baster but smaller and i keep the anemone half in the water half out and i sprayed fresh water on the foot and it would always let go the water was also a little colder than the tanks
