I bought this green bubble tip anemone 4, 5 days ago and looked great in the store. got it home a couple day later I try to feed it Mysis shrimp but didn't really try at all to swallow it. Then my stupid clown fish had gone in it and nocked all the food out. what I'm wondering is how long did your bubble tip anemone acclimate before it really ate any thing of size like krill or react some when you put food on it.

thanks

Mine ate the first time I tried feeding it, that was 2 days after getting it. I do have to say it was a little unhappy for about the first week, but now it's fine and my clown actually feeds it for me. I place the Krill on the surface and she takes it to him, he devours it in a few seconds.
 
I think it took a week for my bubble tip although I suppose I'm not 100% sure it's ever eaten, the mysis stick to his tentacles, so I'm assuming it's not all being stolen by the other alnimals (had him 17 days now).
