new anemone not eating

[ggk1988]

I got a sebae anemone this week. It hasn't taken any krill yet... how long can it go before i should worry about it not eating?

On a different note my clown fish started hosting in it within a day. so i am really happy with the anemone and dont want to lose it.

just give it a little time its just getting comfy in its new home
if its not bleached out i would not worry to much for at least the first 3-4 days. but that's me. someone more up on the subject might help more. good luck with your new anemone. we would all like to see some pic to

have you tried any other food items?

 

[ggk1988]

not yet i didnt want to try and force it to eat everyday so i am going to wait a couple days and then try brine.

Brine is not an ideal food for anemones.

What else besides krill and silversides?

 

[bencozzy]

cyclopeeze, mysis, clam, squid.

one of those should be accepted.

 

[GSMguy]

dont bank on the cyclopeze as they are small peices of plankton.
krill and silversides should work but if not try what ben suggested.
