Wondering GBTA!

[God of thunder]

Hi there.

This is my first post for some time.
Anyway i´d like to ask you guys for some advise.
The thing is that my GBTA has been located at the same spot for 1,5 years now but recently begun to move, it was located in an optimum spot in the tank! in fact i arranged my live rock in accordance to the anemone position.
Why is it on the move??

Have you changed your lighting recently or are due to change it?

No, my bulbs are about 5 month old....recently did a water change though...

Could be one of several reasons. They move because they are unhappy/looking for something, light, flow food. I would check your parameters, make sure nothing is out of wack there. Have you changed anything else that would have upset it, anything new in the tank? My rbta sat front/center for over a year, never moved. One day it began to wander, did this for almost 2 months then it split. I can't say for sure if yours is on the verge, just relating my experience.

Mine has never split and i´ve had had it for 2 years, do you think it´s do? another question, is it o to feed an anemone with mysis?

Hard to say if it's due, some split regularly other not so. Just saying is a possibility. I feed mysis as well as krill, and shrimp.
