Four months into my tank w/TBS and loving it. 
My BTA moved around the tank, found his happy place in the rear corner - after looking at all the places I had set up in hopes that he would be more "front and center", I realized that almost every surface had either a cup or star coral where he would have to put his foot.
The rock he settled on is the ONE smooth one with no barnacles or corals on it - could this be the reason?
Would appreciate hearing from other BTA owners w/TBS - can these corals "bother" them enough to make them move?
I did a lot of reading on what type of rock formations (crevices to pull their foot in, ect.) they like and re-did my whole rock work.
BTA is looking good and eating well, just would like to be able to see him a bit more.
Here are some pics of my tank:
