Thanks Minh.
Yes, I don't have much light in my tanks.
About the current, I have to play with it, if they don't like it, they will move.

Thanks aznflyfisherman.
I put it in a 4" U-shape PVC (with sand in it).

Hi deep sea, do you have any advice on keep these LTAs healthy. I am able to keep ritteri, and btas alive and healthy, growing big. I am trying your 4inch pvc method to see if I can keep them to stay and be happy. Thanks...

I think they are all the same. All need quality water, proper light, and proper current. I don't feed them unless I want them to grow faster.
Happy reefing.
