why must my tank be so new!!

Hang on in there... time passes quicker than you'd think. I thought I'd break a few times, esp when a RBTA popped up on ebay. But I held out, and the aquarium Gods must have noticed because at the 6mth mark a nearby reefer put an ad up for a RBTA clone! I got him last week and he's absolutly beautiful! :)

Great to know if I do have any problems with him I can ask on here without feeling like an arse for getting one too soon.

Don't worry RBTA's pop up all the time, and for a lot less money than that one. ;)
 
really? ones that are that nice? i've seen a bunch of RBTA's and BTA's around here at various LFS which were pure crap compared to that one. oh well guess patience is key :)
 
Yeah no worries. Mines actually a bit redder than that with a greenish base...beautiful, and he was just $60 (inc the big rock he was on!) :D

Once you've got to 6mths and feel you're ready just have a good look about for local reefers with clones for sale/swap (forums, reef clubs and whatnot.) You'll find your baby and you'll be pleased you can give him a stable home.

With 75G you've got a lot of space for some other distractions until then. :D

not all the ones u see in the picture are the ones that u get.

With Diver's Den you get exactly what is in the pic (believe me, I have spent wayyyy too much money in that section of LiveAquaria).

Rewd - you probably want something with a deeper color and for a lot cheaper price. I think the original of the clone in this pic cost me about $75

Check with your local reefers. Shipping is expensive, and can be quite harsh on an anemone. The ones in my gallery typically go for $30 - $50 and are not hard to find in the Chicagoland area.
