how fast BTA can grow!!!!!

[Mr Cob]

wouldn't you grow faster too if someone was pooping on you all the time?

Lol,

I was pooped on by a lot of racists when I was a kid... You may have something there, bro.

[Mr Cob]

lol, knew it

That's TMI, Allan.

Mine split 2-3 times a year. I NEVER feed them. Usually they split after a big water change.

I've been collecting BTA's for years and growth rates vary on every single one. I have two BTA's in my tank that I put in my tank about 5 months ago on the very same date. One is a rainbow and the other is a pink lemonade. When I first introduced them into my tank they were about 3-4" in diameter. The rainbow BTA has split on me twice giving me another 3" clone and 1" clone that didn't make it. The pink lemonade is still the same size about 3". I target feed my nem's once a week with frozen shrimp.

Jeez, Kevin.... your flamethrower BTA split? And you didn't invite me to the party or pass out cigars or anything?

Our little bstreep clone RBTA split around May (as the direct result of a stressful run-in with the syphon tube on water change day.) The runt has been on the move for the past few months and this morning responded to a slight change in rockwork by letting go and doing the balloon drift routine that is so alarming. I scooped it up and stuck it where I wanted it and so far it seems to have agreed with the suggestion, happily attaching itself!

Lucky, if you want to gently remove that nem from the container, you know it would be easy right? I'm guessing that you like the security of the boundaries it creates?
