Wonderful color in BTA

Hey I just wanted to share the color of this RBTA.. It has a green base also.
I have only see this color once before on a friends RBTA and wanted to know if its a rare color.



It was to hard to get a picture of the green base. The foot is brown but around the base of the tenticals and the mouth it is a very brilliant green.

Very nice Rob.. The ones I have seen latley in the LFS have all had faded color and the mouth is brown. I have never seen one so bright and with a green mouth.

With a RBTA about that size (2-3 inches) how big of a piece of table shrimp should you feed it? I tryed something about the size of a dime and it took it in and spit it out. I think it still got a small piece of it that broke off but most of it got spit out.

Just an update, I did get it to eat today. I think I was feeding it to large a piece of shrimp before and it would just spit it out. Today I tryed about half the size of before and it ate it and never spit it out. It may also be that it is just not as stressed after the move.
