Hmmm, I just added some sexy shrimp to my pico. I could always throw some of those little stars from my dt.
 
They will eat nems, palys and zoas if they are not getting enough to eat. I've only had mine for about 1 week and have been putting in the small 1mm NLS pellets, which they have been eating. I suppose I will try some mysis soon. I put in a few zoas to test things out and so far they have not touched them.

What else do they have to eat other than the nem?
 
Oh wait, they are supposed to host nems, and only eat a little bit of them.

Quote..."There have been some observations of sexy shrimp eating tiny bits of anemone off the tentacle tips, this behavior is completely natural. They seem to sporadically eat the tentacle tips in measured amounts giving the anemone more than enough time to regenerate."

Maybe there are too many on 1 nem...? What type of nem is it?

its a decent sized bta, i feed frozen 4 times a day and pellets drop 4 times a day food is abundant. i think i just need to stick my hand in there and split em up a lil bit. never had a problm on any other nem with only like 2-3 on them
 
I'd say there would be an abundance of food for 8 tiny sexies. Relocating a few to another nem sounds like a good plan. gl
