Reefpuck Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Is it possible to keep them on a single but good sized rock?...or can they jump ship wherever they want? I really want one...but all my rock work is connected and the thought of moving corals around constantly isn't appealing lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want one...but all my rock work is connected and the thought of moving corals around constantly isn't appealing lol. My experience has been if they are happy, they'll stay put. I've had them stay in the same place for years. The only issue is when they split, one or both will usually go wandering. Sherman BTAs will split if you sneeze in the same room as them. They are known for being very prolific.Rainbows are here or there. I had 3-4 natural splits over the years with my old rainbows. Often, it was caused by a stressor, like I left the light on all night by accident.Believe it or not, BTAs can also split a lot in poorer water conditions too. Its like a survival technique as well for them that I've observed. That can also cause the constant wandering issue as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarmerTy Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 What exactly are you trying to say Ty?!Bwahaha Robb! Don't forget I said this too! "Sherman BTAs will split if you sneeze in the same room as them. They are known for being very prolific." Now to which applies to you, I don't know. [emoji14] But I should correct myself, BTAs could split prolifically maybe because they enjoy higher nutrient water, not because of poorer water conditions. My previous statement implies judgment, which was not the intent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarmerTy Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 jeeez, how do you really feel?Nooo, higher nutrients doesn't mean poorer water quality. It depends on the inhabitants and their husbandry needs. Quit putting words in my mouth Isaac! Spin doctor! I fixed it to read better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
