I got my first BTA on friday and placed it on the top of one of the rock formations in my tank. Within about 2 hours, it moved over the back of the rocks and settled on the bottom of a low 'bridge' between that formation and the one next to it. In total, it moved almost 2 feet to get to that spot. Over the next two days, it moved over about 6 inches on the original formation and has affixed itself upside down to the second rock up from the bottom. It has been there since Sunday morning.
In it current position, I have to use a mirror to see it, which quite honestly is extremely disappointing as it is the most expensive thing in my tank. Despite the fact that I have to labor to see it, it has been out in the open and healthy looking and has eaten everything that I have fed it.
My question now is what to do about it. I would obviously prefer that I be able to see it on a regular basis, but at the same time, I don't want to overly disturb it while it's adjusting to the tank. Of course, if I am ultimately going to try to move it, I don't want it to get so comfortable that a move would be too difficult. Also, I don't think I can move it by hand without moving almost every rock in the tank. What do you guys think I should do?
