Anemone Anomaly

[Tentagirl]

I'm happy to report that the long-tentacle anemone seems to be recovering from it's intake incident. It has chosen a spot and has been there for about a week. I have been feeding it some krill, here's my new question: when I feed the anemone, either the clown or one of the cleaner shrimp come and take the krill away. Should I stand guard and shoo the others away while the anemone eats??

And, it seems to be leaving tissue from it's foot around the tank. Is it normal for them to shed this skin?

Also, can I feed the krill to a bubble tip anemone as well? It doesn't seem equipped to eat anything like that.

For such simple animals, they sure are complicated!

use the coke bottle trick.. take a 2 liter bottle and cut the bottom off. place it over the nem and feed it the krill. Yess, you can feed the BTA as well just cut the krill up if you think it is too big.
