RBTA closed up

[idan555]

Hi guys,
I got my RBTA about month and a half ago, he was doing great. in the last 1-2 days he closed up. now he is super close and I'm not sure why.
I also got at the same time large LTA and he is doing great.
my tank is about 1.5 year old. my parameters are great.
Doing water change every 10 days, brand new carbon in BRS reactor.
I didn"t change anything in the tank or added.
2 days ago I feed him, he was happy the next day.

any Ideas? tips?

I change the powerhead away from him, and he start opening again
I hope that was the problem

So the problem is you added or changed your powerhead recently?

I believe I might kick it when I cleaned the glass.

When the anemone stress by strong water flows, it will show at his tails. the tail is not smooth.
In your case, that is normal. It poops out everything it ate last couple days and it will back to normal soon.
