anemone hermit crab care

[airedwin]

Hi have an anemone hermit crab, it is doing well but wondering if i need to take care of the anemone on the shell as well? It doesn't seem to get fed anything.

It should scavenge from anything you feed the tank, ie: Reef Roids, etc.

the anemone? or the crab? I see the crab eating just fine, but the anemone seems like it is dying/shrinking

You can try basting it with some food (brine, calanus, etc.) every now and then.
