feeding anenome ?'s

[isz]

i've tried to feed my BTA on multiple occasions, the first few times, he seemed to take the silver sides that i had given him. but now i have a clown that likes to have a clean house and he removes any sort of food i put in the anenome. would it work better if i fed him cocktail shrimp?

I always feed mine squid and my clown tries to take it away too but I just push the clown away for a second and the anenome eats it right up.

I feed the fish first, then while they are busy darting around I feed the anenomes, but sometimes I have to keep the clown away with my aquarium tongs so the bta can capture the food.

i finally got him to eat i had to keep the clown at bay with my cheap aquarium tongs (read chopsticks) then the BTA ate a huge silver side i gave him, yay!

do you have to feed mushrooms like anenomies.

no mushrooms are mostly photosynthetic, however some of the special shrooms such as ricordea and the elephant ear mushroom will feed and they grow faster i fed.
