Smaller the tank the more difficult it is to keep stable I've seen BTA's in 14g biocubes as well. Make sure your parameters are stable and they be fine
 
I have my RBTA in a 14 gal biocube and he's doing great. He does move everyone once in a while.

RTBA questions. I have had a rtba in my tank since May 2014. He attached well to a rock and moved a few times. He was a lot bigger in size and now I am leaving him be to find where he wants to be. Question how often should I try to feed him? Small quarter size foot stable no tears, mouth small and tight. He is not attached to anything but sitting on the sand. Any advice??? thanks.
 
anemones usually enlarge and deflate daily...usually deflate when they're pooping.
 
Thanks for the info. I have watched my RTBA deflate and regain overtime. What I m seeing now is his color bleaching and he is shrinking. This AMI found him positioned between two rocks so I am leaving him alone hoping he will calm down. There are green mushrooms located al around him but I guess he wants to be there. I will keep you all up date on his hopeful progress.
