BTA in the sump

[Mr_Cool]

My Green BTA found it's way to the overflow and took the plunge. It went through the Durso standpipe, through the flex tubing, found it's way to the holes in the acrylic that force water through the nylon bag of carbon sitting on top of the holes, and attached itself to the nylon bag.

I scooped it out, and put it back on a rock in the main tank. Do you think it'll be okay?

I don't know how it made it all that way. It looks to be intact. It's always had the white spots, and never really been very green in color, except for when the moon lights are on.

Mine was ok when it did the same thing. I am glad I am not the only one that has had this happen.

same here. my rbta did that not to long ago. i put it back in my display tank and 2 days later it was missing again. going on 3 weeks and i'm still hopeful that it will show up in my sump again.

I had a BTA go through a Tunze powerhead. Turned it into a smoothie. 2 weeks later I had about 7 baby BTA's cruising around.
