Rbta

[BryanM]

Just wanted to show off my new RBTA.

It looks really cool. I would feed it some food every few days after it gets used to your tank. It looks like it is a little bleached out but it will recover quickly with food. I would start out with mysis shrimp soaked in a little selcon. The shrimp are small so it will be easy for it to eat them. I feed mine cut up silversides too. Anything you feed it should be the size of a pea or smaller.

wow, nice picture...my rbta looks nothing like that, it almost orange

 

[BryanM]

I got it from a fellow reefer in the area. His split into five. Not sure how long ago. He looks good, but not accepting any food at this time. I tried brine shrimp, phyto enriched myasis. salad shrimp, and coral creole. Any suggestions

 

[BryanM]

I did cut up the salad shrimp into small pieces and soaked it in a dish with coral creole, and that has selco in it.

Well if you just added it, it's still acclimating so probably doesn't feel like eating just yet. Give it a few days then try again, mine liked pieces of silverside. Also as it does look a little bleached its probably acclimating to your lighting too. You'll probably find it will go on the move before eating, they prefer to be on the rockwork against the substrate as yours is pictured.

Yea, he has moved a couple of times. It is now attached to a bigger rock on the under side against the sand bed.
