shortened tentacles after split

[FishWife1]

One of my anemones has split and the 2 now have short tentacles. Both are eating and have settled in but they don't look great. I'm basically feeding them and leaving them alone. Any other suggestions?

Thanks - Laurie

Laurie,

Mine split over a month ago. one looks great , the other one looks terible. It won't eat and is hanging upside down. The one that is eating looks like it always did.

Did both of yours start eating at about the same time?

I am assuming we are talking about BTAs?

Keep feeding them every other day. What are you feeding them? Sliversides and pieces of shrimp work best. Got any pictures?

Sorry I haven't checked back for a couple of days. I am feeding several times a week. They all seem to like krill better than silversides. I thaw them and break into tiny pieces and hand feed to make certain they grab hold. All are eating except for one. A couple are bleached because they made their way into the overflow and ended up in the sump for a week or 2 until I found them. I have 2 green btas now and 3 or 4 rose btas. I also have a tan bta that's left after a split. I can't find the other 1 or 2 from that split. The RBTAs are doing best.
