This is correct and I have used it before. Try to use an icecube that has a square edge. Works best if you can remove the rock the nem is on so the cold does not dissipate in the water. Start at the edge of the foot and start to rub. The foot will start to lift up, then you can really get the ice under the foot and it goes faster after that. Good luck. I too am over run by rose BTA's!From what I've been told, you basically take an ice cube and rub it on the foot of the nem to encourage it to let go. I've never done it but some swear by it. Hope this helps
This tank was set up 5 years ago but it was made from 2 other tanks that were 20 / 10 years old... but all new water and sand. Same rock/fish/. bigger tank new lights. BUT in the tank that donated the BTA... it had lived in that tank 7 years never split? I have no idea why sometimes they have bubbles, don't have bubbles and split? It is a mystery... but one that will kill me b/c I am VERY reactive to BTA's.How old is this tank? I only ask out if curiosity because I had the same issue with bubble tips in my 180 years ago. I went from 3 to almost 50 at one point. When the tank matured a few more years the nems stop splitting.
