Keeping a BTA in a 10 gallon

Before people go crazy with telling me not to do this I just want to give some info. I currently am running a 115 gallon reef with a rbta. This past weekend I set up a 10 gallon with a pair of percs for my girlfriend and I was wondering if I were to upgrade the lighting would it be okay to keep a small (under 5") rbta in there with them whenever my rbta splits? And basically just cycle out new clones whenever one gets too big for the tank? I can sump the tank if necessary but I planned on watching the parameters closely.
 
I have kept a small clone BTA in a 5.5gal tank with a HOB filter and 70W MH Sunpod with success...had to run an ATO system to insure proper SG as well....
The only issue I would see is the nem outgrowing the 10gal quickly, but then again, you have that covered with ur 115gal tank :)
