Hello!

So I bought a gbta a few weeks ago, thinking it was a nice green color, turns out it was semi bleached as its turned brownish orange with green tints. Its been being fed about once every 5 days. It went from taking hours to eat to taking maybe 2 minutes to eat(silversides and squid are the two things I've been feeding). I think these are all pretty good signs that its going to survive (and hopefully thrive) in my tank, which has been running at a very stable 0 ammonia nitrite and nitrate for a few years. I noticed yesterday that some of the tentacles are splitting, not the whole anemone just single tentacles here and there. Is this a good sign or a bad sign?

Please excuse if this is a silly question, This is my first anemone and I want to make sure it gets the best care possible!

I would take some pictures but my camera is out with my daughter and her father for the next few days!

Thanks in advance!!!
 
Mine have a couple of tentacles that do that and the 'nems are fine. It sounds like you are nursing it back to health so keep after it, especially since it is semi bleached.
 
Alright thats great to hear! Thanks for the quick reply...As far as the bleached thing I'll post a picture on here in a few days. I'm sure no will be able to tell me for sure, but I'm curious if it will change color any more. Its kind of a neat color right now.

Thanks again!
