Wow, clownfish steal food from angel to feed RBTA

I'm new to clowns and anemone in general. I feed my angel frozen ocean nutrition formula 1. After I bought my saddleback clowns, I notice the bigger female drag down the pieces of frozen food to the anemone. I thought it was an accident but after a week or so, I'm beginning to worry that my angel will starve because this clown is so active in feeding the anemone she host. She will take the piece as soon as I drop it in without giving the angel a chance.

Also, is it okay if I mainly feed the RBTA frozen formula one?

This is so fun, I didn't know they would do this at all
 
The way I heard explained, the clown thinks it's storing food in the anemone rather than feeding it. I'm not sure I believe it though. The nem and clown will be fine. Worry about your angel. Maybe feed at both ends of the tank? I lost a butterfly because it was just too picky and slow to eat.

I've heard this as well.
