    My RBTA Stung Me Today

    Title says it all. I was cleaning the tank and my hand brushed the RBTA which returned the favor with a sting. It felt like a needle sticking into my finger and there was something left on the sting site which I quickly brushed off without taking the time to look at it. First time this has...

    Odd RBTA Tentacle - What could it be?

    I have an RBTA that is very healthy and has been that way for years. I noticed an odd tentacle that looks like there is a milky colored substance inside of one tentacle and it seems to be coming out of the tip too. It almost looks like a fungus growth or infection of some sort. Has anyone...

    Help Identify this Nem!

    Hey everyone- I've had my eye on this nem at my LFS for a few weeks. Someone was going to buy it today, so I finally made the move. The owner at the LFS is OG and said he's been breeding the same one for 10 years. He just calls it a bubble tip nem. It wasn't in the best condition (partially...

    Calling all nemsperts - perfectly normal looking RBTA been in my tank a month or so. 2 days ago started walking but I corraled him into a floating basket all yesterday which ROYALLY ticked him off. Last night I tried placing him on a high rock and he latched on immediately. I fed him a small...

    Anemone split and now won't open up

    I made a HUGE mistake. I am kicking myself for this. I hope this doesn't comeback to bite me. I have had this tank running for almost 2 years. Back in January I got this beautiful RBTA from a local reefer. Lately due to work and life I have neglected this tank more then I am willing to admit...

    RBTA Problems

    Hey Guys, I recently developed a bad case of dinoflagellates which had decided to take over my tank. Covered my sand, rocks, and unreachable parts of my glass, and no matter how much I scrubbed the rocks with a toothbrush, cleaned the glass, or vacuumed the sand, within hours it would all be...

    My RBTA Spawning

    Couple hours after the lights were off, I caught my anemone spawning. Poor fish, he’s confused and don’t know what’s going on. LOL Now, time for a water change in the middle of the night. Ugh

    My RBTA won’t attach to anything

    I got my RBTA 2 days ago. He was attached to a rock so I carefully removed him with an ice cube and turkey baster. I acclimated him for temp and ph for a reasonable amount of time before placing him into the tank. I used my anemone basket to float him near the top of the tank to kind of isolate...

    Is my RBTA dying?!?!?

    I just removed my RBTA from a piece of rock and placed it in my anemone basket. Some of the tentacles are drooping and deflated. I got it from a local reefer today and it was healthy. I think he might just be annoyed about moving him so much.

    BTA Bubbles vs No Bubbles

    Hello everyone, I have been trying to figure this out forever and have heard mixed things over and over so finally I decided to ask the big question here… How do you get the bubble tips to inflate/ stay inflated on Bubble tip anemones? I have seen many many tanks on here and in person, some with...

    Got a BTA yesterday- Need Care Help

    Hi everyone! I haven't been active in so long. My tank has been neglected because life and the college process happened. However, that is slowing down and I got my first RBTA yesterday. So far, it seems to be going great. Its happy, plump, and has not moved from where I put it. It is...

    Is my cloud killing my nem?

    I have 3 RBTA's and 2 clowns the smaller clown refuses to host anything but the corner of the tank, the larger clown won't leave my new RBTA alone. It used to host the other larger nem. I know it's too big for this one but it won't leave it alone. Not even long enough for me to get a good...

    RBTA Help!

    Purchased a beautiful large rbta about a month ago, he came on a small piece of live rock, but about 2 days after placing him in the tank he moved to the bottom corner of the tank, and since then has moved several times out of any flow, and in lower light. It look like he is trying to split...

    Rookie seeking help

    Hi guys, I got into the hobby about 5 months ago now knowing at all what went into keeping a saltwater tank (It didn't help that the staff at the LFS I went to was not very knowledgeable or interested in helping me out aside from when i was ready to buy something). To keep a long story short, my...

    Anemone moved from rock to glass

    So about two weeks ago my 'nem moved from the spot he had been in for 6 months to a similar spot only a few inches away. Then today I did a water change and bumped the rock he was on and came home to see this. Is this an OK spot or should I try to move him? Honestly I'm moving in three weeks...

    RBTA looking like wet noodles

    I've had this RBTA for almost 5 months now I think, he acclimated quickly and has been very healthy. Two times now I've seen him go from completely open and healthy to sucked in and looking deflated (see pics). Yesterday he went from looking like first pic then to looking like second. Then...

    Is these more anonmes or critters?

    So I bought 2 RBTA for amazing price with a huge rock plus 2 clowns that I think are black ice Oce and frostebite or snowflake but this rock has the 2 large anonmes but I can not tell if these are tiny extra ones or something else

    Clown finally hosting (condy) anenome

    After about 6 months, a couple of my clowns are starting to host one of my anenomes. I have a rose bubble tip and a condylactis; I thought it was odd that they started hosting the condy and not the rbta, so I thought I should share. https://goo.gl/photos/81QSaugGVfuhVzbh7
