Talking Now there are 2...YAHOO!!!!

Mom's in the ICU and it's been a stressful week to say the least and I've just been feeding the fish, topping off the tank and running back out. My RBTA had been acting weird the last couple of weeks, not fully retracted, but not eating either, even though I tried to feed it Wednesday night. This morning I promised myself 20 minutes of down time to de-stress and just watch the tank. The first thing I see is the RBTA a good 6 to 8 inches from the spot he's been occupying for the last 18 months...and he looks smaller. Fully inflated it was over 9 inches. Well, the cup of coffee kicked in because I now realize THE ARE TWO RBTA's....Oh happy day...hopefully it will settle in right in the rock hole next to his clone...fed them some plankton, and they ate and the new one found the hole and seems to be making itself at home... Keeping my fingers crossed that the GOOD KARMA spills over into other areas....Thanks for being there...I feel better

Sorry to hear about your mom.

Congrats. My BTA split a while back so I know how you feel. The little guy has never left the others side so now they host my pair of clowns. The male gets the small one the female the larger one. Hopefully yours will settle right in. I hear that the "offspring" is very sensitive at this time so baby it, but I never did anything out of the norm with mine and it is doing great. Almost a year old now. The "mother" is about 18 months. In my tank that is. Just feed it like normal and everything will be great. Congrats again!!!!

i say this as my best advice to a beginner. do not,,,and i repeat,,,,,DO NOT look at my tank as an example....i have a well practised eye, decades of experience, and a trunkload of failures to allow me to force the issue and get away with things most cannot~
