Will start Spot feeding my anemone the shrimp are not letting the anemone eat and stealing all the food from it. But my question is can I dip a piece of shrimp in the reef roids and feed it to the anemone? And is shrimp a good meaty food to feed it or would there be another meaty food?

OK anemones not corals. I wouldn’t dip in reef roids. Just feed smaller pieces of shelled deveined raw shrimp. Place it in the nem with tongs or feeding stick and let the nem draw it in. Nobody should take it away then.

I find reef roids can increase my nutrients pretty fast. I prefer Aquavitro Fuel.

No problem. Just there are not that many corals that would eat shrimp large enough to dip. I recommend a good copepod/Amphipod population in any tank. Provides a live food source for fish, corals, and invertebrates. Daily dosing with phytoplankton will keep the pods high in nutrition.
