Feeding a Rose Bubble Tip

[Scrandrew]

Mine took his first food today. It was a small piece of raw shrimp from the local grocery store. That being said, what should I feed this guy to keep him at his best? What do you feed your anemone?

Also, how often do you feed your anenome? How do you introduce the food to your anemone?

many people feed silversides, which work well. i like using a mix of seafood sent through the blender with garlic and vitamins added--get a bag of seafood mix from a local korean food store (no preservatives), blend it, add garlic, selcon, etc, then freeze it in sandwich bags laid flat--about 1/4" thick.

break up little pieces and feed--feed extra cause the fish will go nuts for it. most people say you should thaw it and then spray it with a pipette or turkey baster, i just throw one frozen lump for the fish, and put one frozen lump in the nem.

they all like it (i like cold food too, so i get them

I feed my BTA little frozen fish from my LFS. They come in a pack, I can't remember what they're called...I think you call them Silversides in the US(?)

I just stick a fish onto a tenticle every 2-3 days. Great party trick to show off to guests

oh, how often--whenever i think about it, or, more commonly, whenever somebody says 'well what do they eat?'
