Day3, This morning I found rbta in the shadow again, and it was open but not bubbly. I was away from my home about 2hrs in this afternoon and I checked rbta, It was still at same spot but it was fully shrinking. And it starts to come back again at dinner time, well I guss that is still adjusting the condition but it dose not good for my heart.

Hang in there, as anemones go, BTAs are among the more tolerant & hardy. How is the 'mouth', generally closed tightly or gaping open much of the time? Is it possible to post some photos?

the mouth was slightly open, but was close yesterday. I cant see it today, yet, but check the foot and it looks like attached to lr and tentacles open up a little bit, so its a good sign. I will try to take a pic by i phone.

When I first got my bta he hid in a crevise for a couple of days then one night after he got used to my system it decided to move up and over onto my maxima clams shell and it has stayed there since.

When the actinic lights are on, mine will have it's bubble tips, but when all the lights come on it losses it's bubble tips. This is a normal thing and nothing to worry about.
Mine is happy at about mid level in my tank where it finds the lighting just fine. If yours finds where it is too dark it will move.

I try to post some pics but I just cant figure out. Anyway, when aqutinic lights came on rbta was still open and some of the tentacles are bubblish shape, and when MH came on then it starts to close. Now it is completely close, took about 4hrs.

You need to upload your picture to an online photo hosting site like photobucket in order for us to see it.

Ah, I still have a technical problem to cut the pic's size down. I took some pics by iphone, and they are more than 600x600 pixels.
