How to feed Anemone?

[rapalla]

Yo, recently i just bought 2 X fist size Bulb Tipped Anemone, but i'm not sure how or what to feed them? Any marine expert willing to share?

u can try feeding chopped market prawns or fish... best chopped finely and use a long eye dropper to feed it.... aim for the tenticles. Also can feed them with frozen brimp shrimps the same way...

drop a small piece of prawn, krill, squid on the tentacles and it'll bring it to its mouth to ingest.

My 3 Anemones' favourite food = sliver side fish

U shld vary the foodstuffs to include squid, mysis shrimps, silversides, prawns etc.

Some reefers say that the more you feed these animals, the more they split, and the smaller they stay. If you want a large specimen, don't feed it so much, maybe once each week. If you want lots of smaller clones, feed the hell out of it.

U mean, the more they'll spit out.

you meant to say that they can divide themselves up and grow separately?

[Golden Tooth]

Yup. They could multiply.

Anemone tank???

Bubble tip Anemones are a medium light Anemones.

They do not require Metal Halide lighting, in fact they hide from such bright light until fully adjusted to it which could take weeks of acclimization. They will thrive under PL lighting very well if you have rockwork that they can climb up on to reach more light if they feel the need to.

If your BTA wanders around it is either unhappy with the water flow, or is looking for food. If it hides, it is trying to get away from bright light, or is new to your tank and is just acclimizing itself to your tank. Be patient and do not move your new Anemone. It will come out of hiding on its own.
