GSMguy,

Thank you for your post. Yes, from the pictures you posted it looks like the anemone is acclimating well to your aquarium. If it’s still acclimating in the aquarium, he may not be ready to eat yet. You could try and feed the anemone a piece of fish, or shrimp with tongs. Using the tongs will help keep the food in one spot while the anemone closes around the food.

If we can be of any additional assistance, please feel free to contact our Technical Support Department at 1-800-334-3699 or via email at TechSupport@drsfostersmith.com and we will be happy to answer any question(s) you may have.

Sincerely,

GSMguy,

Thank you for your reply. We feel that the anemone is still alive, and may just not be ready for food. The fact that it spit the food out shows that it is active, and it may take a few more days before it has acclimated enough to accept food. As always, please contact us if it takes a turn for the worse.
