I just got an anemone for my clowns and I'm wondering what the best way of taking care of it is.
Does it need a lot of current?
Whats it's favorite food and how should I feed it w/ or w/.o a current?
My clownfish aren't paying much interest to it, so is it getting the food it needs?
Are there any fish i should not put in the tank? Does it eat fish? Do fish eat it?
Sorry, I know, a lot of questions. Just want to make sure I do this right =]
Thanks!

What type of anemone is it?
What type of lighting do you have?
What size tank?
How old is your tank?
I feed my anemone small pieces of scallops.....I just thaw a piece and feed it 2-3x a week
They do not like too much flow....moderate is okay...just make sure they are not being blown around

I have a long tenacle anenome and it will close up and eat brine or mysid shrimp from the water column when I feed my fish.
Wherever you place him in the tank, if he does not like it, don't worry he will move.
I was lucky when I put mine in about a year ago, I placed him in the front corner with not too much flow and he has not moved since.
I think the biggest thing is find out where you want it - hope is is comfortable and leave it alone
