View Full Version : My BTA split.

This morning before leaving to work everything was in one piece.
I came home and noticed how "big" my anemones foot had gotten.
I did a little rockwork yesterday and was concerned that there may have been some shifting of the rocks and the anemones foot was caught.
I moved the rock a little and to my surprise my anemone had split.

I know there are many reasons that anemones split, injury, stress etc.
My BTA has incurred no injuries, has no stress, is well fed, good lighting (mh), good water, good circulation.

I can only surmise that he split because he was happy. :):):)

Here are the twins:

Here is a close up of the "new" (and I only assume it is the new one because of this) anemone mouth.
As you can kind of see it is only a partial mouth right now.

Awsome! Nice anemones.

What I have heared is that you don't need to bother feeding it for a few days. Give it some time to grow the outer edge etx.
