Sunburst BTA okay?

[Hyperion1337]

Just picked this guy up from a swap yesterday. Has been in the tank for about 22hrs and currently looks like this(as of 5 min ago):


is it good or bad?
Tank specs:
40 breeder
ati sunpower 6x24w T5s dimmable currently running from 0-50% while I acclimate the anemone and other frags.
hes currently sitting in the middle of tank (height wise) with some light to medium flow in a basket with some rocks. So far he has attached 80% of his foot to the rock he is currently sitting on. Oh and his foot was not ripped and his mouth is not gaping, so i assume that it is good.

This is his feeding response when i fed him earlier:

Looks good to me. Takes them a little while to get use to their new tank

I have one also, yours looks great.

it does not look bad, but imo you should refrain from feeding it until it acclimates to your system. I would also consider maintaining at least a medium flow as BTAs typically enjoy good flow.

luv the fixture btw...I have two, 6X24 and 6X39 and swear by them....enjoy!

how old is your system?

 

[Hyperion1337]

The system is a year old. Its been growing corals well.

I'm very jealous. It's a beaut!

 

[Hyperion1337]

yeah hopefully it grows and split. this is my first bta, but im feeling very optimistic about it. the nem settled in today and expanded fully for the first time since it was in the tank. it opens up to about 2 to 3 inches.

these BTA are my favorite I just acquired a small one from my friend yours is a good lookin nem

 

[Hyperion1337]

yeah its doing well but its acting so moody lately. he keeps on moving around and moving lower even thought my t5s are on 30% power.
