I agree and have observed the same.

Thats why I say its genetics.

You and Flighty with your trips to Fiji are starting to annoy me! :lol:

I have over 20 rbta in my tank from 3 different "parents" and I have not figured out the bubble thing. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. I do notice more bubbling after direct feeding, though.

Thanks for your input, Princess- What do you feed your roses?

I rotate food for my fish everyday, so they get a variety of frozen foods such as chopped krill and mysis. I also feed various flake foods, cyclopeeze,etc. Then twice a week I direct feed chopped silversides. There are a few pictures in my gallery, although I need to update. They have really taken over. I can't hardly keep corals anymore. Guess it will be an anemone tank.

Thanks

Nice angel in your gallery!

Might as well be an anemone tank since I see you have a GSM clown -they have a way of dominating a tank and discouraging growth of Cnidarians other than anemones lol

Yeah, I know. I have a mated pair in there, but I can never get a picture of them together. It's pretty sad when they pretty much own a 540 gal tank!!

Holy cow! 540g --- we should be calling you Queen Di, not princess - . Of course if that maroon rules the 540 she's the real queen. lol

Come to think of it.... when I had a maroon pair I called the female Queen Isabella and the little male's name was Mr. Queen Isabella. It fit them pretty well.

I was hoping it was genetics that is why I got a second rbta that was a non-bubbler. However after two weeks in my tank it is a bubbler. I did not feed for a week but no change in behavior, I broke down and fed it last night. Anyone here with strait tentacle anemones feed regularly? And what does regularly mean? I feed twice a week.
