What do you guys like to feed your Anenomes?
What do you guys like to feed your anenomes?? I have been feeding mine krill... so far... it seems that if I where an Anenome, I would like more than just krill. I just want to know what you guys find that works best to keep your anenomes happy and well colored??
Also just as an FYI... I am in Houston until March 12th so if you something on RC or something or at MARSHREEF.com for sale, that you are interested in, let me know... I can just bring it home with me if you would like to get away from paying shipping.

Trodder, I saw the post about the Yellow Zoos...if you can find any down there, from members or stores, let me know. I'm looking for some bright colored Zoos, I don't want the $600 Blues, but let me know what you find. |

I feed silversides and shrimp mostly. I also soak the food in Selcon for a day or so prior to feeding... That seems to have increased its appetite, and it's size rapidly.

Mike- I am going to try to get my hand on them yellow zoos but i will also be going to an LFS here pretty quick to see what is available. I will keep you in mind and shoot you a pm if I see anything worth while! I too am on a quest for some bright colored zoos... maybe if they have a good size colony, we can go halves on whatever I find. I'll keep you posted!

Puppies, kittens thrash to much because they don't like the water

Don't feed. Any thing they get other than from light is what clownfish drops or drags in........

Once ina while I shove some thawed angel diet their way. They seem to like it. Biggest change I saw though was when I added the MH's.
They will also catch baby brine shrimp and eat them. |

Trodder,
I will split any colorful zoo's with you. If you find some blastomosa wellsi(big polyps) that are different colors PLEASE let me know. I wish I got to travel more, I have start begging so I can go to the grand opening of the Mercedes finance center in Costa Mesa California. Then I could stay a few days and try to find a way into the warehouses where the corals are shipped in. Oh well a girl can dream   |

Back to your subject, I occasionally feed our 2 RBTA krill or any of the frozen foods I am feeding. Our clowns bring food to it so I don't worry too much. I am feeding it a little more now hoping it will split again.  |

I like giving my carpet goldfish. Sometimes my clowns will pull them in if it is swimming by. They last for about 20 minutes in the saltwater. But it is really cool to watch it though.
