i got lucky with my GBTA (1 Viewer)

so i was rearranging the rockwork last week, only to not notice that my gbta was sitting on two rocks, well i removed a peice and one of the rocks went falling, bta's foot was still holding and didnt let go, eventually it snapped in half!!! 8O , then i noticed it split right down the middle

been in my tank for a week now and they all have new tenticles

surely not the ideal way of making your bta's split lol

My RBTA grew back to normal size from a tiny flesh when I removed him from the rock that my he was anchoring.

i have been debating taking an exacto to one of my RBTA's...but to too chicken to do it....has anyone been successful at manually splitting?

I split a GBTA in a friends tank because it was on two rocks. I took the rocks apart and it tore. I didn't notice if it was right through the mouth or anythnig like that, but now there are 2 happy, healthy GBTA's in the tank.

who knows, maybe it'll always work, if its being split under water and still kept in the water, because i know when you take out the bta, it'll loose all of its water weight and look like mush
