RBTA looking like wet noodles

[WhiskeyCoffee]

I've had this RBTA for almost 5 months now I think, he acclimated quickly and has been very healthy. Two times now I've seen him go from completely open and healthy to sucked in and looking deflated (see pics).

Yesterday he went from looking like first pic then to looking like second. Then today he looked like first pic then now he's looking like second one. What is going on?

I don't think anyone has determined why some bubble and some do not, and why yours is going back and forth I don't think anyone can explain for certain.

That's not what I'm saying. Last night it sucked itself almost all the way inside itself then before I went to bed it was almost all the way back out. It's done this two times now.

Weird grump critters. Check the ammonia jus cuz. But it likely its acclimating to light and chemistry.

Mine will be out for days being fine then grump for a couple days.

When they poop they will kinda ball up with a few tiny tentacles sticking out
