Fs - Rbta

[ben&bobbi]

i got one of the RBTA free from the main structure. Right now it is attached to a branch rock that i would like to keep, but I won't hurt the anemone trying to remove it.

selling for $55, about 4-5" opened.

i have a smaller one available as soon as he gets off the rock of the mother. the mother used to be easily 18" when open.

offers considered

bump

 

[ben&bobbi]

ok, i am taking offers from LFS also.

It is a bubble tip, i was told my maroon is a little ruff on them. You can see a purple LTA in the same tank to compare - they are different.

hey, I know someone that wants it... talk to keithcrmr1 on the ORCA forums

 

[keithcrmr]

where are you located?

 

[ben&bobbi]

we live in Mims (east coast), i work in orlando near sandlake/john young.

 

[keithcrmr]

do you have the smaller one available yet or just the larger?

 

[ben&bobbi]

just the larger one. the smaller one is attached to the same rock as the mother!

I would be interested where is it located in your tank how far away from the lights i have a single 14k 150Hqi is that going to be enough light for it. Thanks

 

[ben&bobbi]

it is under 4 24" VHO's. this one is behind a screen to keep it away from the rock work. A 150w MH will be fine, based on the same reasons you asked where mine was.

 

[Lowredranger]

I am not sure what you mean by behind a screen? Does it move a lot i was planning on putting it in a 34g current cube with some Lps, do you think it will stay at the bottom with those light conditions? Thanks

 

[Cheekymonkey]

It really depends man, they will move not only based on light, but also based on currents, and what is next to them... You kind of have to try it and see how it behaves, and keep a close eye on it.

 

[Lowredranger]

Thanks yea i have good current in the tank i just wasnt sure if with that light it is enough for him to stay near the bottom or if he would want to be up at the highest point in the tank. I really just want to add most lps and a couple softies.

 

[Cheekymonkey]

I think you missed my point. good current is a good thing, but he is going to move around for a variety of reasons. Just abut anything, he may not like the the direction of the current where you put him, the feel of the rock, and even with nice reflectors there is variance in lgith.

He is capable of living at the lowest point in your tank under a halide, BUT he is most likely going to do some moving when you put him in regardless of how good of a spot you pick out for him.

 

[Lowredranger]

Ok sounds good, I used to have a sabae a couple years ago and he was pretty good at staying in the same place but every once and awhile he would go on a walkabout.

I live on the outside of Orlando, how do you go home every night since i see you live in Mims? I live in Winter Springs.

 

[ben&bobbi]

Lowredranger - geneva would be a better meeting place for us. we are about 20 minutes east from snow hill.

i can't guarantee he will stay any one place. our original anemone has settled in, the little one is still settled, but the medium one (selling) it trying to get out!

Let me know if you are interested.

josh, thanks for providing the information!

 

[Lowredranger]

I will check back next week if you still have it i would be interested but i am going to be gone all weekend and don't want to leave him unattended for his first week. Thanks
