While looking through posts on caring from ones RBTA, as mine was just not, well, happy... I went out and decided to "GOOGLE!"
Things I learned in my search...
1) No one REALLY knows why anemones do what they do.
2) My RBTA wasn't happy, but had nothing to do with Water Params, Temp, over-loving from my Percs...
3) 1/2 of a silverside was actually too much food at one time (its a small RBTA), hence my observance of it spitting out the fish (after cleaning off the outside of it.)
4) 1/4 inch of silversides is JUST what it wants
5) Feeding will be every 7 days, unless the tentacles start getting stringy and sweeping, as this is a good indicator that it is hungry. Big and plump (or bubbled) is a happy and content little critter.
6) I will continue to read what other experience and if it doesn't apply to my anemone, I will read the next post until one fits my situation.
