My RBTA just split

[vincent6396]

Just took a look into my tank and what a surprise, found out it splitted. The color in pic 1 was about 2 weeks ago, yeah it was bleached when I got it but now the white tentacle is alittle flourescent green. Never expected the split for this nem, was waiting for the 12" rbta to split.

It's an unhealthy GBTA.

This 1 is about 11-12" across when fully open. Pics are under actinics, daylight are off. Sorry for blurry pics and couldn't get good closeup shots.

This is another clone from same.

How long does it take for them to fully heal and start eating?

Here's a pic of each half from just now. Moved them into my 15g tank to keep eye on healing process.

wow nice color on that anemone! I would say give it about a week or two to allow it to heal before feeding it.

The 1st pictures you show, your anemones looks bleached, are the other picutres of the same anemones? If so how did you bring them back to such great color? I have a bleached rose that I purchsed for a LFS before I found out that the color was not normal. Any tips?

 

[vincent6396]

2 diff anemones, anemone in first pic has darken up, it's brownish and still have the pink tip.

did you do anything special to help the recovery process?

 

[vincent6396]

I put it near my light fixture T5's and feed it every other day small pieces of silverside.

If I can dislodge him I will try that. Thank you very much
