Below on the left is my buddy's RBTA kept under real nice t5s, on the right is one he gave me when it split. Mine is kept under radion pros and has split as well - so must be happy. I also have two other RBTAs and all in my tank have longer tentacles as opposed to bulbs. I haven't been able to figure out why I can't get mine to bulb up so perfectly like his.
Nano. That's partial right. Nems split for several reasons. Some times because of stress. But also cause they are happy and conditions are good. The pic above are mine that my buddy was referring to. Mine has split twice and is very happy. As for bulbs vs no bulbs. I find that te further from light and flow the longer the tips will be. It also could have to do with need for food. When I don't target feed for extended times they tend to get longer.

When i had my first nem i wanted it to grow so i kept feeding it. Once it reached about 4" it split & thats when i read that feeding rbtas often without giving them time to digest can stress them causing them to split. On the other hand i now have a different rbta that i feed often i got it at about 3" the nem is huge now probably 8" when fully open.
