I just got home from being at work yesterday from 730 a.m. till830 p.m. plus a half hour drive, and when I checked the tank, the frogspawn I was babysitting for someone who didn't have enuf light and had lost 4 out of 5 heads~well the last head was just hanging by a thread and a wonderful snail turbo'd by and knocked It off; then to my dismay, I found my beautiful rose anemone, which I saved from dying and it had revived wonderfully, looked dead flat and black across the rock it was on. Then the dog puked her dinner on the floor cause I got home so late and she usually eats 3 hours earlier! Needless to say I was depressed :sad:
To make a LONG story short, when I got up this morning to dump out the dead, I found out that I am now a Proud Parent of 2 rose BTA's, which apparently had split during the night! :dance: What'd I do right?!?!
Actually, what's more important is: WhatdoIdoNow??? They are now about 6 inches apart on the same rock, both have moved from the original spot it was attached to since I bought it about 6 months ago, and it looks like they were split at the mouth, but they are each trying to regroup themselves around their half of the mouth, so I don't Think I can feed it Yet, can I? Any suggestions about anyofthis that would be helpful to a first time new parent would be appreciated!!! :bowing:
P.S. Cigars all around to everybody !!! :thm:

Pop open some pink bubbly, put your slippers robe/on and relax. It'll be a few days before your little friends heal up from as you can imagine is a stressfull process. Then business as usual, use your noodle as far as when to start feeding again in regards to stress. You must be doing somthing right, keep it up... it beats dog barf.

Thanks reefrash!
My better half wants me to go into business now, thinking I can do this all the time! Imagine, selling one of your children! I'm thoroughly enjoying watching them grow up! :dive:
