ok finally got my anemone to eat some squid. should i feed it every 2 or 3 days til it gets back to health?

If it is ill i would only feed one a week!

I have been feeding mine every other day but only small pieces of silversides. I am told to feed the bta more often when it is weak. Do you feed yourself less when you are hungry? Feed it food no bigger than its mouth. If you fed it a very small piece of squid then feed it every other day untill it starts grabbing the food on its own. When it starts to do that ..then start feeding once every three days. Karen feeds her rbta's mysis every day and silversides once every three days. She has been caring for bta's for several years so she must know some thing. Squid is some thing but try to get raw shrimp, or silversides as well.

I have silver sides.. it rejects them

Maybe you are giving it too big of a piece of silverside. When I was giving mine a whole silverside it wouldn't eat it too. How big is your bta?

4 inches- i'll try again some time with silverside
