RBA split in 3 went in overflow

[Paradoxed]

oh man, woke up this morning, overflow sounded a bit different, ya know how you get used to how it's supposed to sound?

and found 1/2 my rba on the overflow tube, the other half in the sump, both appear ok, well as ok as I guess it could be.

It split at the mouth, the first one is now open and has closed around the tear, I guess to heal up, the other, although smaller seems to be doing the same thing, the third piece is quite small, about the size of a marble. the tentacles have filled a little.

anyone know the chance of survival on third one? I can't tell what part it came from, has about 6 tentacles, I have been doing searches here and elsewhere past two hours, I should be working, but hey...priorities

the rba has been in the tank about 2 weeks, and a week ago, started going towards the overflow, I have fashioned eggcrate as best I can to stop it from going in, obviously not good enough. any ideas on what to use besides eggcrate?

thanks

That's pretty lucky...no flood

nope, no flood, but now that you bring it up, I need to look at a second u-tube or something for the future...

thanks

Well I would imagine that a decent sized anemone could clog two tubes if they were adjacent to eachother. Perhaps another complete overflow box would be a more redundant, safer solution.
