ItsBwalt Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 So I had been looking for a baby RBTA for my nano reef and stumbled upon one at my lfs in their bubble tip tank. It was literally the size on a nickel. Well now after it has settled into my tank I started to google pictures and it seems no one has ever seen an RBTA this small whic made me wonder if its even an RBTA at all and not some weird majano / tulip morph....haha! Did I pay for a pest? I don't think I did but would like to clarify and if anything let the forum see my new baby RBTA! Like I said it literally is the size of a nickel fully inflated.

Lawnman Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 It is a very small BTA. I have had ones like that in the past. It usually happens when a BtA splits then a few days later one of the halfs split again. See if you can get it to eat some small krill or mysis it is a tiny bit bleached. Link to comment
Rollermonkey Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 And make sure you feed that shrimp first, so it's preoccupied and doesn't steal the target feed from the RBTA. Link to comment

And the shrimp always steals my Acans food as well. He's ca crafty thief haha. As for price, the regular RBTAs were marked at 69 each, I asked what the price would be if I grabbed the baby one, he looked at it then said "uhh how about 20?" I said deal lol! Link to comment
