Is this a coral on the bta foot?

[Newb2reefing]

Just got him into tank and seen this. Total newb here so not sure if it’s just his foot. TIA

Or is the BTA on the coral?

 

[Newb2reefing]

Ok so it’s definitely there. That would cool if drops it now. 2 for 1. 20 bucks well spent

 

[Newb2reefing]

Will he let it go? I’m starting to worry about it. He is on his side

 

[KrisReef]

I think I see a green BTA, with a snail (Shell?) and another flat anemone (Pizza?)

All good, nice score!

 

[Newb2reefing]

Does he look like he is ok? This is my first one and my first tank. Complete newb here lol

Looks ok from what I can see in your pictures.

Holy Smokes, you just joined today. Welcome to Reef2Reef!

How long has the tank been set up? Do you have a protein skimmer? What kind of lights? Anemone like good water quality and a good amount of sunlight for energy.

There is also some debate on black sand as much of it is volcanic in origin and some of it has been known to have metal contaminants that can leach into the water potentially causing issues for invertebrates.

Only mention most of this because you said you are new to the hobby. Hopefully, things will be ok with your new critters.

Tank has been set up for 4 years with a fire hawk and some mushrooms. My boss lost interest and asked if I wanted. Just happens I’ve always wanted one. The tank is a biocube 32 with stock lights at the moment. Plan to put a sb reef nano sprite light in. It’s going to be a fun journey

a bleached BTA and a green rock flower?

Krisreef hit it on the head. There was the acid wash bubble tip with a snail stuck to it, with the rock flower stuck to the snail
