The BTA in my 24g nano is taking over the tank, beating the crap out of the other corals. It finally split yesterday, but instead of 2 smaller ones, like the one that split in my RS 45g, I now have 2 large ones!
I don't suppose there is an easier way to remove them other than disassembling the rocks. There is a Purple Stylophora growing into the rock that the BTA's are attached and I want to see how it grows.

Give away or sell. BTAs grow faster than most people realize so eventually you’ll need to do something.
 
Obviously I made a bad choice putting it in the nano tank. In that small tank they grew big, in the larger tank they have stayed small, so far.

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
