I have a 7 months old tank; 40x30x20(tall)
Aquascape consists of 5 islands, and my plan is to have three with sps, one with softies and one (the largest) with BTAs.
I bought my BTA exactly two months ago, and it has been doing great. It walked around the first 24 hours, but always remained on it's island. It grew very quickly and split 10 days ago. The clone changed locations quite a few times the first 3-4 days but has remained still since that. Like the original, the clone has never left the island.
My question is; how likely is it that a BTA would move away from such an "island setup"?
Mine do not seem to want to walk across the sand bed.
I have heard they could simply "free float" and attach to wherever the current takes them, but I would imagine this is a very high risk maneuver and something they probably would do only when desperate(?)
