Will my nem be able to move?

[abryant]

I have a separate rock island in my tank and I’m wondering if I put a bta on it will it be able to get off of the rock and onto my others I’m trying to keep it away from my other corals so they don’t get stung, and also that rock had gsp on it will it sting the gsp?

Nem's gonna go where it is gonna go. You cannot control it.

Yes all of the above. If they want to move they will blow up like a balloon and float to another rock or roll to another rock or even walk to another rock. They may or may not sting the gsp but gsp is like a weed anyways so it’s not like you’ll lose the whole thing.

Darn I just don’t want it to take over my tank it’s only a 32 gal. So there’s no way to stop it?

Honestly, no. There's no way to keep it in one place that You want it to stay.

It'll move where it wants to go.

...? Or, I know it's crazy, but how about seeing where it wants to go and seeing if it's going to cause issue, before damning it?

There are Thousands of BTA in full on reef tanks, not causing problems...

Yep they go walk about. Only thing I can think maybe nem bowl . But they do what they want when they want. Sometimes they find a place and stay there for months then start walk about . But they are stunning

Yeah I do love them but I think I like my other corals more so I might just make a small nem only tank lol

Yeah I’ll see I’m trying to let it grow out first in my acclimation box since it’s super tiny right now but I’ll see where it goes
