Hey all, first time BTA owner. Put these two guys in Friday evening. Tank parameters stable and just noticed them moving a lot over the couple of days they’ve been in there, the smaller one is very tucked up. Just looking for advice or info as a lot of stuff I’ve read is very inconsistent.

I don’t have a lot of experience but if water parameters are good and lighting is right, it should be fine. They sometimes move around until they find a spot they like. My bubble tips haven’t moved much but I had another type that went all over the tank before settling on a spot
 
Give them a couple of weeks to settle in. In the photo above, it looks like the foot is inflated, indicating that it's still on the move.
