I feed my gbta silversides. He seem to like. How often do i need to feed him. Once a day or every other day. Also how much. I gave him two fish. Is that to much. He is the size of a mans hand.
 
I personally would stop using silversides -- myself and other experienced anemone keepers have lost otherwise healthy anemones to their use.

Back when I fed my anemones (( haven't in about 1.5 years )), I used frozen/thawed krill, about once a month. If you are seeing a waste ball produced, you are using pieces of food that are too big.
 
i'm with trex, no real need to feed them. i haven't feed my long tentacle in three years. what little meaty food she wants, she gets from when we feed the fish. can't wait till i figure out this computer contraption so i can post some pics :]

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
