uws Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I feed slices of market prawn on a weekky basis. Or you can consider getting the silver side fish. Just gently place it near to the anemone mouth and it will grab the food. Remember not to force food into mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member iskay Posted June 3, 2013 SRC Member Share Posted June 3, 2013 Any seafood is fair game, including dead/ sick fishes from your tank. Just make sure the are small enough o be digested in a day or 2. Else, half digested food will be regurgitated pollution. Your tank. Quote "Be formless... shapeless, like water.

SRC Member woyeng** Posted June 4, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted June 4, 2013 Thanks for the quick responses bros. So I gather that pellets is a no go then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member illumnae Posted June 4, 2013 SRC Member Share Posted June 4, 2013 I use mysis and chopped up mussels/prawns. I think pellets may end up being either to small or too hard for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member woyeng** Posted June 11, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted June 11, 2013 When the anemone feeds on red algae is it a sign that I am under feeding it ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troyjbon Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I used frozen prawn bits. But usually my mischevious cleaner prawn will steal it before the anemone closes. Thus must feed my cleaner shrimps before feeding my anemone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member LfcCta Posted July 2, 2013 SRC Member Share Posted July 2, 2013 I use market prawn too. Mysis seems messy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I use market prawn too. Mysis seems messy try using this trick. Get a balloon stick and a syringe. connect the hollow stick to syringe, suck in mysis from tip of stick and inject very near anemone, it works for me, never messy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
