Hi dosed vibrant (1mL) and BTA shrunk back to minimal and hiding in the rock. Is that usual for bta to shrink like that under full light? It is my second week dosing vibrant to try and rid a cyno outbreak in my tank,
 
Mine come out in full light the more light the better for BTA's. they like stable tanks so the vibrant's the issue.

Thank you! I sure hope i'm not hurting the poor guy. I'll have to consider if the vibrant is necessary to continue or should I try something else. My pulsing Xenia doesn't seem to care about vibrant, fish/inverts are fine too, just the BTA is affected.
 
He may get use to it . they are sensitive to changes
I have a AI Prime HD LED on my tank.... I have moonlight, curious if you use moonlight with your BTA? I have it on slightly, 5% all night.
 
Ive never had an issue with vibrant and bta's.
