LTA and BTA

[brian762]

are these two compatible in the same tank?

I tried it in the past -- in a 58, with carbon -- and the LTA wouldn't stay put until I removed the E. quadricolor. Less than 24 hours after I removed the E. quad the LTA finally settled in and stayed put.

Just for reference Todd, what was your total water volume when you tried it?

Brian I have had these two together for overy a year now, The RBTA was tiny and bleached when I got it. It has recovered nicely, the clown only host the LTA and have never given the RBTA the time of day. The LTA has never moved in over two years, the RBTA goes up and down a rock when I change bulbs. I run carbon in a reactor, and my tank is a 150.
