Feeding anemone and hermit crabs

So I put my sebae nem on the bottom near a rock and he hasn't moved from there. I'm feeding him just some myasis with a turkey baster. He latches on to the shrimp and pulls it in then the hermits start attacking him to get the shrimp. Hoping he will get sick of this and move up. Any advice? I am planning on getting some real shrimp and feeding him little pieces. Any recommendations on good food for nems? Any advice would be good advice. Thanks David
 
I haven't dealt with anemone but when I had my freshwater tank I had a similar problem with fish and shrimp. What I did was feed the fish on one area and the shrimp on the other.

I would set up a small area were I would add something that takes a bit to resolve or the shrimp as you mentioned and while the hermits are busy eating that id feed the anemone with the turkey baster.
Hope this helps I know it did with my shrimp and they got to the point they were to shy to try to eat with the fish but after that everyone was full and happy.
