So how often? and what do you feed them?
I have a pink tip and some kind of carpet anemone, I say this because I bought him like 5 months from pet cooo and it was bleach white, I did not have the proper lighting until a month ago and now its changing colors like a brownish color
Although when I feed it shrimp, krill every other day or so or when it catches something its tenicles turn green around the food particles.
What do think this means??????????????????????????????????????????????

The condy I'd get rid of, or at least feed it once or twice a week.
The carpet should be fed meaty foods at least twice per week.
More important for both is the lighting, for the carpet's sake I hope its now metal halide.
What type of lighting did you get?

I got 2-250w 10k mh and 1-150w 20k mh with my exsiting 260w of pc.
Why should i get rid of the condi, becuase of mixing two seperate speicies? I have them very far from each other.

Getting rid of the condy is simply my preference. In many cases the condy will tumble around the bottom of the aquarium. In the case of the carpet, it should be on the sand bed itself, with a tumbling condy the carpet would easily sting it to death if they make contact. But if your condy is already planted fine. Just pointing out the possiblility.
Lighting looks pretty good, I'm glad

Should I move the rock that my carpet is on, down to the sand bed? He is only about 6 inches from the sand bed.
And from the post above, why do you think its turning green were food touches?
The condi host my cinnamon clown which was my first fish, I would hate to get rid of him, also the codi has'nt moved in about 4 months
