Most fish that eat pest anemones eat them from when they’re born basically.
If they don’t then it’s usually because that’s not a huge part of their natural diet IME.
Feeding less often won’t do it but feeding less food altogether may cause the fish to go for anemones, at the same time may also cause them to go for coral.
