Gbta dead??

[PJtree23]

Hi,

I purchased a GBTA from my LFS and acclimated into my 29 gal tank which had been running successfully for 6 months so far. It never attached itself to anything and just ended up in the sand bed tentacles down!

I then decided to take it back to the LFS, but as I was putting it into the bag is fell to the ground! When I finally got back to the LFS the guy looked at it and told me that i was still alive and that he would try to revive it and I could come back in a day.

So any input if it is truly alive or dead and can it be revived?

Thanks,

PJ

Would need to see a picture of it to determine if it was dead or alive.

What lights do you have ?
What are your parameters -- with numbers?

Thanks for the warm welcome!

He made a complete recovery...haha...that ones tough invertebrate.

Is it bad I feel like a father to a child???

I will get pics later...Oh and how long should I wait to see if my false clowns will make friends with my GBTA?

My female occ took 3 months to take my RBTA as a host, the male followed 3 months later. BTW, 3 months later it split. Seems to be something about the change of seasons in my tank haha. Wonder what Fall will bring
