![]() Have had my BTA for over a year now and had progressively gotten BIG. Question: is this too big? My tank is 150 gallons and is 5 ' across in this pic. It kills my montiporia as it moves around the tank, but has anchored itself in this spot for several months now. Is it possible to frag it off wih zapping me or killing it? It is very cool as the one resident Clown fish will not leave it for anything.
Anyway, just asking for opinions. Last edited by newreefer_59; 10-21-2011 at 04:06 PM. |

![]() you can try to force a split by letting your water quality go down and raise the temp slightly(1 or 2 degrees) then do a massive water change cant frag a bubble tip it splits when it sees fit. another way is to do multiple feedings and then it splits sometimes but none of this is a guarantee its just what we have learned over time.it is getting big possibly consider selling it and just buying a smaller one again

Newreefer, the clownfish is likely to cause you more harm to you than the nem. A good healthy BTA feels sort of sticky, thats about it. |

![]() I saw this video in a BRS email. Not sure if it would work on a large one... or even if a person would want to chance trying it but I thought I would post it.
Coral propagation -- Episode 1: Propagating the rose bubble tip anemone RBTA In our first episode of the coral propagation series we going to show how to propagate the RBTA rose bubbletip anemone rather than an actual coral. This can not only be a profitable endeavor but you can also help reduce reliance on wild caught anemones and reduction of clownfish habitat. It is possible to use your saltwater reef aquarium to do this at home http://youtu.be/9HeNy9aWm6I
