Micro RBTA

[zaraemna]

Check this little guy out. I have a few rbtas in a plastic basket holding for a frag swap in my local club. One of them pushed a small part of the foot and a few tentacles through the holes in the basket. A week or two ago it pulled apart and now there is a new tiny one on the outside. It looks like it is going to live and form a new one. I think the shortest tentacles are newly grown since it split

That is the tip of a regular turkey baster for size comparison.

Looks like it has grown some new tentacles already. I still don't think it has a mouth yet. I always thought it had to have part of the mouth to live. When it split not enough had pushed through one of the holes to get to the mouth. One of the tentacles caught a piece of flake food but it floated away after a few minutes. It didn't try to eat it.

This one shows the scar where it healed just to the left of 6 o'clock. To the right of the scar are some really tiny tentacles forming.

The frag swap is a month away so it will be awhile before I know if I have any left to sell. If I do I'll create a new thread in the buy sell forum. I'm not really sure about shipping either.
