I just got this BTA from a friend today. I have a red and green BTA and they look nothing like this. i was hoping one of you nem guys cold put a name to it for me. my wife saw it and fell in love so sorry not selling. Looking at it the mouth is blue,turns green and green goes into the tenticles,turns orange then red on the second half of the tenticles and has a purple dot on the very tip. here is a few pics but my cam sux. thanks in advance.

dunno the name but nice BTA. give it a few weeks on your tank to see if it'll morph into a different color. I have one just like yours. some of mine have bubbles and some don't.
 
bta's are named quadricolor for a reason its just a bta a nice one but still just a bta
 
It's a nice looking BTA. I can't wait to see how it colors up in your tank!!
 
I forgot to ask if you know how old is this morph been in captivity? I'm assuming this is a clone from your friend. how long has been the strain around for? just wondering because I have one that is very similar and the guy I bought it from bought it wild 3-4 years ago. he said that there was a bunch of those morphs that came in around that time. when I received mine they were stringy but when they went into my tank, they are bubbly after only a few days. :)
