So I've been feeding my carpet fresh shrimp cut up into bite size chunks, which he has been accepting very well. What are some of the other foods you feed your anemone? I've know what a lot of places say online but I want to know your personal feed and how they react to it.
 
I feed mine wild caught whatever I eat - shrimp, scallop, corvina or other fresh caught fish
 
Not sure what other suggestions you're looking for. Feeding fresh shrimp and sushi-grade fish just about covers it. Whenever I eat fish, I cut off a sliver and feed it to my nems. I don't think it can get any better than that.
 
Thank you. The answers I have gotten were kind of vague and I didn't want to feed something that would be detrimental to the nem. I think I get the picture tho, high grade fish and shrimp, easy enough.

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