How often and how much to feed an RBTA?

I plan to feed raw shrimp...just need to know how much and how often. Thanks.

Start off with small pieces, roughly the size of a pencil's eraser, or about 1/4" long. A lot of people feed somewhere between once a week and three times a week, so it might just be finding a balance of what works for you and your anemone.

A lot of people have success with silversides, also, so that might be something worth looking into a bit.

Good luck with your anemone!

I feed small pieces, about the size of the mouth, 3 times a week. I also feed silversides, rods food, and lance fish.

i got mine on friday... so far ive fed it twice with mysis (its pretty much the only meaty food i have) but it took them both times...

i will probably stick with the mysis just because i dont have to stress about cutting pieces small enough, etc... it will eat as many as it wants and let go of the rest... and they def arent too big for the mouth..
