Did it split?


Last night my wife noticed something unusual... After the lights had gone out, we saw this sticking out of a rock. It kind of looks like an anenome, but I never noticed my anenome splitting before.


hope you guys can make some sense out of it.
Like always, sorry for the bad pic.

Looks like a rbta, the one you have is green. You may just have a new one

I doubt it.. your bags were small enough that I would have seen it...

and if you look at my thread about my clown, it looks similar. both this and the first one in the clown thread were taken without flash..

how long does it take for an anenome to split? can it happen overnight without someone seeing it?

You should be able to tell buy the remaining bta. If the tantalce are uber short on one side and/or the oral disc is no longer circular.

he will hide out until he heals. As long as the clown is not too rough with it, it should heal up in no time

the clown hasnt found it yet, so i think we are ok on that.
as for the bigger anenome, he isnt completely circular, but has always been like that i think, because he was one that split off of dirks anenome.
