Cutting BTA into 4?

[RedAnt78]

I've been cutting my RBTA's into 2 each time and I'm up to 13 for my anemone tank, but I was wondering if anyone has cut them into 4 and if so, how did it go, did they all live?
Thanks!

Pictures!
Also, did your anemones change color after they were cut? Or did they remain exactly the same in color?

i seen people do it with good and bad results. i would wait till the nem you want to quarter is over 8" so it has a better chance.

I've never cut a nem but I did have a large 12" RBTA split into 4. I had the RBTA for 7 months and it never split on me. I ended up tearing down my tank and sold 98% of my corals and had to replace around 40% of my water. At the same time I gave my RBTA the remaining frozen food I had and when I woke up the next morning I had 4 clones throughout my tank.

There are safer ways to get them to split than cutting them, just feed heavy.
If you have 13 in a 55g I would think you'd be about chock full of nem by now!
