My RBTA split, making me nervous!

Hey guys, yesterday when I got home from work, I looked into my tank like always, I didn't notice at the beginning, all my other corals are doing great, my gsp fully extended, my candy cane slowly splitting into 3 heads from 1! All my corals are booming.

Then I saw it, I had 2 anenomes now they were both fully opened and seemed to be doing fine!

This is a picture of the night prior to splitting,


He was doing just fine! No signs of anything, then the next day he was separated, I havnt taken a picture yet, but they both seem to be doing fine,

My question is, is this caused from sort of stress? My parameters are on point, no algea issues, only thing that's changed is my light, it's been 2 weeks with an AI Prime.

Should I be worried or happy? I'm in weird mood after seeing it, I'm so unsure!

Thanks,
Anthony!
 
You should be happy you scored. Nems split from being happy or stressed. The light change could have caused it
 
Well, I'm not completely complaining about having 2 news, it's just I'm only upgrading my 10gallon nano to a 30gallon long in the summer, so I'm worried my current corals will be damaged when these guys move! I hope they stay happy and grow, I'll dedicate a Anenome only side in my next build :)
 
Most likely they split from a change just be warned
10g is really hard to keep a new let alone two due to the amount of nutrients they consume so make sure you stay on top of your levels and be prepared to dose of you need to, if your upgrading soon you can prolly keep both but if not most lfs will take them for store credit, currently in my 34 my bta split into 3 a while back and they are all thrivin so of your upgrading soon you should be fine
 
Thanks for the heads up, I'll make sure everything is in check, I'll slow down the feeding on them so growth won't be as exponential!

Thanks,
Anthony.
