    Default BTA--MIA!!

    Well I can't find my BTA this am. It was still in the process of healing (frag from TMAC) and was moving around quite a bit. Last night at bedtime it was on the back wall of my 29gBC but this morning it is no where to be found. I checked the back chambers and nothing!! All I can think is that it's either hiding in the rock in the back of my tank or my CUC ate it during the night!! Hummmm....

    My BTA is a lot like yours and took a couple of weeks to settle. There were a couple of times where it shrunk and hung upside down in the dark and I couldn't find it. I'm sure it'll turn up.

    My rbta took about 3 weeks before it found a spot it liked and I approved of.

    My bta from tmac is dead. I had it inside my frag tank. I was looking great for a few days then it started to wilt. Today I pushed it aside with my finger and tissue floated off. Pulled it out and it stunk. So that leaves me with 2 of 4 frags still living from the frag demonstration. I think the cold water is the reason for the deaths.

    Well I found the little bugger. He crammed himself between the rocks in the back of my tank. Last night after the lights have been out a while I noticed him because he inflated a little bit. So I guess he's still alive.

    It really is a shame that these guys come with a mind to do things how they want. Like hiding in the back of a tank, under rocks, and impossible to view.

    I assume that when he is completely healed from the fragging ,that he will come back out into view....don't they like bright light?
