RBTA split newbie
Yesterday when I got home from work noticed my RBTA had and baby RBTA first time is happened for me. Anything I need to do? Should I live it to get light or leave it alone? One more question do I feed it?

RBTA split newbie
Just leave it alone. Mine split last year too. Congrats on the baby nem! Feeding is the same as your other anemones. Wait for about a week (after split) before feeding.

Btas like to stay on the rock. Usually if I see one laying on the fine sand bed (mine never did) , I would make sure it is close to a rock near by so it can get a chance to attach itself to the rock. They are not able to attach to the fine sand bed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Congrats. It won't be long before your 3 turn into 14.

Congrats! Just let nature take its course. After several hundred splits, I can honestly say, it gets really old, especially when you want to keep a mixed reef tank.
If you want to keep a mixed reef tank, then take any opportunity when a clone is on a tank wall to gently pry it off (use your fingernail to get under the edge of the 'nem), and put the 'nem in a separate container or tank (and sell it to another reefer or trade it in at your local LFS). If you don't do this, you WILL end up with a BTA specie tank. Kevin
