What the @$%^!

[HowardofNOVA]

I come home tonight to see that my RBTA decided to move, So I started trying to push it back under the rocks and realized it attached itself to the bottom of my $120.00 Red AUSSIE ECHINO!!!!!

Took me forever to get him off but put him back into a safe spot!!

 

Funny now, but not a few minutes ago!!!

Wow, not cool. Do you think it may have harmed the coral?

[vaironman]

Howard, I am out of real estate in my tanks but I think I can make just a spot for that red chalice just to help you out!

 

Glad everything looks OK.

what did you expect, it is a bta

[jason the filter freak]

wow good save!

[tygger]

Wow, that sux man. How long did it take for you to move it off the coral?

[bk_market]

hmmm if a BTA is happy where it is place then it will stay right? Would there be a chance if it doest get enough light and flow but still doesnt move?

[Gadgets]

Sooo... When am i getting a frag of that chalice? :D

[HowardofNOVA]

 

Chalk up one SAVE!!!

 

I had the Chalice covering a hole in the rocks and the RBTA decided the smooth bottom made a good foothold, EXACTLY in the middle of the coral bottom! Nothing touched the top!!

I lifted the foot out of the water and with my fingernail, it surprising came off pretty quick! I guess it didn't like its foot out of the water. I place in its previous spot and went deep!

 

I then moved about 20# of the new LR, put the old on top to cover the WHITENESS

and then rearrange everything! Actually I'm pretty happy in what I did, so will keep my fingers the RBTA likes it new spot and will come out to play tomorrow!

Nice save Howard. Now to frag that echino so this doesn't happen again!

The Large frag will be on auction in the next couple of weeks!
