Anemone feeding after introduction

[EthanKyle]

Just introduced a GBTA and a RBTA to my system and I want to know how long I should wait before I feed the anemones. Also, what do I feed them and how often?

Feeding is not required for bubble tips. I like to feed mine things like mysis and other similar frozen foods.

I would wait a couple weeks to ensure a good feeding response. Keep the morsels very small and see how they do.

Thanks for the input.

Im glad this forum is started because I would like to ask a question that pertains to it. my rbta recently split due to a power head meeting...... literally looked like a slug moving around no mouth or tentacles but had a solid grip to a rock so I left it. It now has small string like tentacles but no mouth that I can see its been like this for about 2 months. My main question here is are the tentacles stringy due to it being malnourished or do you think its just due to developement and will eventually have a mouth. Thanks again for any input and im really not trying to hijack this thread.

I heard silversides are bad any truth to this

True. Some very experienced reefers have lost otherwise very healthy nems after feeding silversides. The thought is bacterial contamination due to a supply chain that isn't up to food quality standards. Only feed human quality foods.
