RBTA and stinging corals

Recommended Posts

I introduced a RBTA to my tank two days ago. It attached itself to the rock overhang and now it comes up and around the rock right next to my Duncan's. I am sure the RBTA tentacles reach the Duncan's and I am wondering if the RBTA will sting the Duncan's or is it ok where it is for now? I am hoping the RBTA will wonder away but so far he seems content.

 

Will the RBTA sting my Duncan's?

 

Thanks for any input you have.

+1. But once they settle in, as long as conditions are stable, they'll tend to stay in place. But, they are motile and they can and will sting. It's a risk you take whenever introducing any anemone into a tank.

 

Be sure to account for growth, too. That little three-inch anemone can easily grow to be a foot or more across over time.

 

Leave things alone and keep an eye on things. If you're going to move something, the Duncan's will be easier to move.
