RBTA ok with high flow?

[ECali1]

I'm in the process of building what will ultimately be a mixed reef but with mostly sps. The tank is a standard 75 gallon tank and I've got 2 mp40s on the tank that I've been running at about 75% in reef crest mode.

I'd love to add an RBTA to host my clown fish but I'm worried that the nem might not be happy with all the flow. Anyone have success keeping an RBTA in a tank with flow like that?

Thanks!

Just put it in a lower flow area. In the end it will probably move around and find a spot it likes anyway. I have a 120 with 2 mp40 and a jebo wp40. Mines stayed in a mid flow area and loves the flow.

Cool. Thanks reef nub!

I've noticed with my RBTA.. they move to wherever they feel comfortable. Also, I've noticed with high flows.. they do NOT tend to bubble up. Just my experience.

Mine are about 6 inches from 2 of my powerheads. It started out as one, but has split twice, and 2 are about to split again. They seem to love the high flow for whatever reason, and reach up to the lights all the time as well. This is where I originally put the first one in the tank, and it hasn't moved an inch. The 2 that split moved away slightly, but stay put as well.

Ok cool. I'm definitely going to pick one up. Hopefully it will find a spot that it likes! I really can't wait to watch the clownfish host in it!
