how often do you feed your Anemone

[tdragon]

i have a Haitian purple tip anenome and have been feeding it every day is this ok or should i feed every other day?

[IM_NeO]

I have a Sebae and a BTA, I feed every other day.

I have a BTA & a RBTA and feed them once a week. I use Formula 1 frozen cubes (thawed naturally). Have to feed clowns before feeding them because they steal the food if they can. I cut a cube in half & feed to each. At this point if I feed a whole one they spit out or refuse it. Where I got my rose (Alvin) feeds them Formula 1 so I have done the same. So far so good.

ya every other for mine

I have 2 bta's and I was feeding once/twice a week but they are getting big and my clowns have started to feed them most days so I have pretty much stopped.

I feed them when I feel like giving them a special treat.

I feed my RBTA a little bit of Mysis every day when I feed the fish. Twice a week I give it two or three 1/4" peices of Silversides, or shrimp. Eat's every thingI feed it, it is getting huge. Wish it would split.

once a week...

[TheUltimateNoob]

what method do you guys use to get the food actually onto the anemone?

[jack fors]

I feed my 4 btas every other day with silversides or mysis frozen food and use 18" tweasers they grab it right up.

We generally feed our anenomes directly, once a week. We spear clams and/or PEI mussels on a skewer and deliver it directly to the amenome.

When we feed Mysis or Cyclopeeze (sp?), we sometimes 'shoot' it through a Turkey Baster. Mostly, we let it rely on it's natural filtering of food particles from the water column.

I feed 1-2x a week, usually by hand, right into the RBTA's tentacles.
My BTA split into 3 very small, so harder to feed them now. I'm hoping 1 will get bigger, then 1 will go to the frag tank, and one I will get rid of. But they are growing very slowly, so it will be a couple months

silversides, bits of clam, shrimp

Once a week with 1/2 a silverside.
