best type of food for bta

hes prolly fine n can hold off on the rock, unless you got one handy. ive seen a couple different walking techniques, definitely weird.
 
Plus one to weird walking. Ninos old rainbow made it out of my holding container the forst night thru a 1"x1" hole I cut into it for water flow... And that rainbow wasn't small.

But I feed mine frozen hakari mysis, frozen krill, and raw shrimp from the supermarket. I feed 2-3 times a week. I'm hoping the rainbow colors up soon... Tips are pink now at least.

This is all you should be feeding your anemones, if anything (they do not ever need to be fed unless bleached). It is no longer recommended to feed silversides, especially to E. Quadricolor due to issues with digestion. I would go over to the reef central clownfish and anemone forum for more info.

Yep, also consider that Kevin Kohen only has the divers den crew feeding mysis and chopped shrimp:


Divers Den Description said:
rBalinese bi-colored rose bubble tip anemone. This anemone has a green oral disc and an orange mouth. The tentacles of this anemone stick well and are red with pink tips. The underside of the oral disc is green, with a pink column and pedal disc. This anemone prefers to attach to a flat surface, and is maintained under 250-Watt Aqualine Buschke HQI double ended metal halide bulbs that are suspended 18" above the water surface in a raceway that is 16" deep. This anemone is fully quarantined, and is feeding well on a mix of PE Mysis and finely chopped raw shrimp. The diameter of the pedal disc is 1-1/2" and the anemone is 4-1/2" in diameter when fully open.

Freeze dried is fine. If you are feeding freeze dried try to enrich with Selcon. If feeding fresh/frozen the selcon isn't necessary for anemones.
