anemone

Hi I just bought a long tenticle anemone last night and I was wanting to know what they eat and how will you know when they are ready to eat.

what kind of lighting do you have?

Def need a lot of good light. I also hand feed mine prime reef cubes and krill/silversides twice a week.

I have 96 watts of light on my 10 gallon tank

saltcreep already answered your question. Good Luck, a 10 gallon tank is tiny

 

[ericholcek]

you should ask for advice on the nano board on how to keep your anemone thriving.

I feed mine salad shrimp. There already peeled an clean just run one under water to thaw it out and place in the middle of the anemone to feed and whach it suck it down. They are only 2-3 dollars at the supermarket. Mine just loves them. :jumping:

A BTA would be OK in a 10 gallon with that lighting.
I don't know about the long tentacled one.
