Ok my dad bought this RBTA last weekend, and now it has split into two. do we have to do anything for the small one.
I have started feeding the baby RBTA Pemysis. now is there anything else we have to do for it?

Nope, they should both heal up nicely. Don't be worry if one or both move away from the light for a week or two.

Its kind of strange we have only had him for a week,
Is there anyway we can get the clowns to go over and start rubing up against the RBTA?

It took my clown a month or two to decide he liked the BTA. BTAs often split from stress, so it's not surprising that it split when it was put into a new tank.

Is a split do to stress worse then a split just to multiply, or is a split just a split.

Somwtimes is takes a bit longer for the nem to recover if the split is from stress, but generally a split is a split. Take it as making your money back...if you decide to sell it anyway!
