Beautiful...simply. By far some of the best looking RBTAs I have seen.

 

[Avian]

nice RBTA, watch out though, those guys will quickly outgrow that tank. Both my RBTAs are about 10-12" in diameter

Beautiful RBTA's. It looks like the clowns were already checkin them out in the bag.

I'd move them into more light .. at least not on the sandbed. I think they'd do better under more light IMO.

Otherwise, great colours on those anemones.. good score

Very nice matched set! Wish I could keep anemones alive in my tank.

Thank you all very much for your remarks. I have placed the anemone's higher up in the tank, but one has moved down to the left hand side of the tank, sitting on the side of the rock and has been there for the past few days, i will take some updated pics later. Keep the comments coming. The other one has stayed in the upper right hand corner of the tank and has not moved.

What and how often are you feeding them? They were quite a find, and must have been a pretty penny. I don't see too many of those, at least in S. FL. Where in o-town did you get them?

 

[bluerug]

If i told you the price you would flip. In windermere. And thank you very much.

beautiful btas, bad decision.

to feed both of them in your small tank will only cause the excessive hair algae you have already, to get even worse.

have you considered buying snails instead?

A couple of Mexican turbos will do the trick, or a sea cucumber.

There's a sea cucumber that eats hair-algae? Which one?

I don't know the exact scientific name or even common name. all I know is it east hair algae. Stop being so skeptic.

Skeptic? Dude, relax... you can't even back up what you just suggested . He's obviously was intriqued by your comment and wanted more information... I haven't heard of a Sea Cucumber eating hair algae either....

Also, those anemones got a long way before they outgrow the tank... rock work can be re-done to acomodate.. I wouldn't even be thinking about future plans yet.....

Are you telling me to relax? Dude...how about you relax. I don't need to prove anything to you guys. I have seen it with my own eyes. They actually do a great job thank you very much.

 

[OCDP]

LOL... you should read your posts... breathe, everything will be alright. We are simply asking questions.. and your getting offensive for no reason.

Perhaps don't share information like that if you have no facts or information to back yourself up.... ? Also, no one said anything about how well they eat hair algae. Just a simple question..

 

[Avian]

whoa guys!

BTAs grow fast especially when fed several times a week. With two I'd give them three-four months before pushing that tanks capacity, given good conditions.
