    My tank has recently gone from 4 to 5 healthy specimens. I started with one RBTA about a year and a half ago. It was a large specimen at the LFS - I'd say 8-10" across. Within days of introducing it into my then 125 gal aquarium, it split into two smaller specimens. And they continued to grow until January this year when I introduced them into my 180g.
