davidbean Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I have had a pink BTA in my tank for about the past three months and he is doing great and growing like a weed. Problem is he split into three about three weeks ago and now all three of them are between 4-6 inches across and I really don't want all three in my tank. How do I get them out without harming them? I cannot remove the rock, they are on one of my base rocks under about 60 pound of liverock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timfish Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I had a large Teal w/ pink tips BTA that was on the back side of a very large piece of live rock where I could not get to the foot. It took about two months but by putting flat rocks blocking it from expanding it finally crawled onto a smaller rock I was able to move easily.

Meteorflower Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I've always been able to tickle mine off if I can reach the foot. If not, I find shading them or otherwise making them uncomfortable (pointing a powerhead directly at them, etc) usually convinces them to move. Good luck!
