hi, i have a extra large seabae Heteractis crispa anemone is refusing to eat after 4 weeks in my reef...ive tried brine shrimp, mysis, shrimp, small frozen fish and still not luck....however i do see him poo every now and then, but then again there is no fish currently in the tank...any idea o what i should do/try? thanks alot :)
 
I'm not sure of the length of time for digestion, but if you have poop...I think it's eating. Do you have pods? Also a tiny piece of raw shrimp is what a friend feeds.

yeah i do have pods, and thats what i am going to try and feed next thanks :)
 
I'd be willing to bet it's already eating pods. I watched my hammer do it too.
 
You don't have to feed them. Most of the time they won't digest the food you feed them.
