BTA split?

[dmolavi]

After probably 5 month in the tank, my BTA appears to have split. Is this something I need to worry about, or could it just be normal reproduction? Feeding and water have all remained constant...the Kenya tree next to it has always been there and the nem parked itself there when I first introduced it. Should I move one or both?

My BTA splits a few times a year. Nothing to worry about. I usually sell the second one pretty cheap. She's paid for herself several times over.

Good sign! My one has split 2 times.

The split is doing well. I think I'm gonna keep it for the time being.

Why would you not keep it?!?!?!

If you don’t want it, I’ll take it!!

Beautiful nem that is full of life!!

If it gets too big for my tank (a 40 with lots of coral). But yes, I have no plans on letting it go.

How often do anemones split? I have a LTA that’s been in the tank since October. Thing is massive. Prob 12+ inches from end to end. Is there anything to make them split faster?

This is my first. Got it in October and just feed regularly. It was maybe 6 inches across when it split.

How often do you feed it and what do you feed it? I usually feed once a week sometimes once every other week. I feed it a chuck of frozen mysis shrimp.

What do you feed it? Getting a rainbow bta tomorrow.
