It's just a tank

Drilling holes now.
Ill probably need to sand still

As long as salinity is not drastically different I do not acclimate mine for anything other than temp.

this right here. If within about .002, plop and drop.

Into the crappy nem box.

Thank you @Eagle_Steve @F i s h y and @fishguy242 for the help.

The rest of you too for positive vibes. The list is too long.

Looks like it is going to be a stunner!

Waiting for it to show it's mouth. The foots spreading. And a tentacle is hanging outside the tub.... I guess that is going to happen?

It's going do whatever it wants and most likely all the things you don't want it to do.

Haha I have no experience other than RFA's

You mean like split? I have had my bta for almost 2 years and she will not split. She gave up growing and went into full battle against a pavona. Pavona moved, bta is much more vibrant in color and is looking happy. Yes, they do what they want.. I just don't want to provoke copperband nipping at loose nem parts..

Oh look, a worm..


Fortunately, the clown tang has everyone thinking the bowl is a montster. No one is going right. Fish are sticking left.

Bound to happen with tent sticking out, why I said holes need to be smooth.

I'll look for an acclimation box. But, by time it gets here, She might be on the loose to find a home. Thoughts on that when to let out of the bowl?

I know a few of them are a bit rigid.

No need for an acclimation box. They will put tents out the slits or holes in it. What you have will work fine.

If it has a damaged foot, I would hold for a few days and let it heal. Usually all it takers is a few days. Heck, it might even start to crawl out before then. If it does, just gently remove it from the tub and place somewhere where you think it will want to stay. It may or may not stay there, but try to find a rock with a good hole in it for it to bury its foot. That usually put the odds more towards it staying put. Like 10:1 again, but better than 50:1 against lol.

The foot is very healthy, no rips or tears. Right now, it's going through the self acclimation process, water in, water out. It's been amazing to watch. But the moment I try to get a pick of the mouth, the tents cover up again.
Shes moving around.

OK cool. I thought I read that it had a foot issue. If no issue, let it acclimate like that for a day or 2 and then move to where you want it. The tub was only to make sure it healed or didnt melt from being to cold/hot form shipping.

I was in a frenzy typing. I don't even remember the last 3 hours. I do like the acclimation method just to make sure we don't need cipro treatment.

BTA usually have to be in really bad shape to need it. I think mine could grow in a toilet lol.

No photo edits. My 2yr old bta. Just about

Don't send it by UPS then... it'll be late or never.

Yep. I've got some corals 6 hours from my house that's delayed because of "mechanical failure"... Put it in a stupid truck and drive it here dummies!

There are points when I just want to drive to the the holding facility and get my stuff. It doesn't matter if it's living or carbon. We get delays all the time. Top it off, I just love it when our packages disappear from existence.

UPS stole my radiator once. I reported it to Amazon, they sent a new one. I reported it to UPS, they magically found it on the truck that supposedly delivered it. Weird thing is, it was opened when it arrived.
