Hi Folks,

Many years ago, I bought a single RBTA. I now have 15-20. I casually sell them as I can; however, they are all on rocks in my frag tank. Thus, there is no easy way to get them off the rocks (quickly) to sell on demand.

What are some of the solutions you folks have for this situation?
 
A bunch of small rubble rock that you can sell with the anemone.
Not experienced in this regard but have done some reading and seems like that would be a good option.

Thanks for the reply! I did use this method when I had a smaller frag tank (20 gallon regular), and it worked. However, I now have 2' x 4' tank now and far too many frags. So they will not always stay on the rubble.
 
I use the net breeder boxes that are around $7. Pond baskets from homedepot/ lowes works and are cheaper. I am trying to get a acrylic box for my display

Good call! I just ordered one, we'll see how it works, thanks!

Yeah, that is what I had pictured in my mind... Good to know these products exist; Thanks!
 
Like the basket for only short term, gets in the way long term
Agreed. Longer term I've always used rubble, but transferred to a basket before trading/selling them. Just have to be careful with rubble when their foot spans pieces.
