Rainbow BTA splitting AGAIN

Sophie"s mom · Sep 4, 2024

Good afternoon all, so I received a rainbow BTA from a friend in late January, and I now have 6! They seem very happy/healthy, open and bubble up very nicely all day long. Water parameters are good. I do water changes twice a month. This is crazy. Anyone else experience this. I mean, I am fine with it as long as they all stay put and do not wander. But if they start to explore the tank, I will need to take them to a LFS! Can't have them going around killing corals, or themselves.

I started with 2 RBTA and 1 green BTA in March. I now have 11 RBTA (have sold 5 already so it would be 16) and 5-6 green BTA. Super happy and healthy. This is a softy tank so not worried about them killing anything but yes… they can be too happy sometimes.

Well, my clown fish is LOVING IT! Currently they all stay together in a corner of the tank, and my male clown just swims from one to another all day. I think he thinks it's funny that the female clown is still afraid of the BTA's, so for now it's just him and them, and you can tell he just has a ball!
