Wow, cool. When my rics split, they dont move apart quite like that! Mine just split on the spot, right next to each other.

Did your flow change?

No, the flow didn't change. The second one (bottom one) didn't attach to the rock and gravity carried it to the bottom of the tank where its currently blowing around in the current. Damn things, they sure are hard to attach to anything

Oh interesting.

I know what you mean about them not attaching sometimes. I recently lost a green Yuma like that! I thought it had attached to a rock in my fuge, so I put it up into the display tank. Next thing I know, it got blown to the back! Havent seen it since, damnit!
