What do you feed yours? i just bought a BTA under 48 watts in 12 gallon nano cube. Its about 3 inches diameter. What food should i give it
 
if its only 3" just make sure you cut the meat up into small pieces. If the portions are too large it will either have a hard time downing it, or it will spit it up later when you arent looking :)

I feed my anemones 2-3x per week. Small raw seafood. usually soaked in Zoe for the nutrition boost

I just go to the seafood counter at my local grocery and pick up small amounts of thier stuff: clams, scallops, calamari, squid, whole octopus, raw shrimp, lobster, fish: like swordfish, tilapia, rainbow runner, whatever.
Just make sure you never give him cooked stuff. Its like rubber for them.

Good Luck! hopefully your lighting wont be a problem, just keep him fed and let him chose where he wants to be in the tank. Never try to put him where you want him, it stresses them out.

When my RBTA was that size I fed 1/2 a silverside a week. You may have a problem with marginal lighting.

I agree, I feed mine anything meaty. Krill or Silversides are my BTA's favorite.
