RBTA Splitting

[timmcq]

Crazy question: Is there a way to stop RBTAs from splitting? One is now 20+

I dont think there is a way, but keeping your parameters stable can help to prolong the spiltting process, i had mine for 3years n it only split once. Give it away or trade, i take some off your hand...lol..where r u in PA, im in northeast PA.

Excessive splitting like that is usually a sign conditions are not to their liking.

I have split some myself on purpose, my suggestion would be to go into business and start selling them.

I don't agree with this. Splitting takes a great deal of energy for the anemone. Splitting as a last-ditch stress response in poor conditions will generally result in a dead anemone (or two). Repeated successful splits generally indicate good conditions for a BTA.
