Bought this bubble tip anemone earlier today, always liked the color when I saw it in the store, finally decided to give in and buy it.

Looks like a pale rose bubbletip. It should fully color up with feeding and proper lighting.

That would be nice, my LFS had him in a 28 gal Nano Cube and he had situated himself in a poor lit area where it would have been difficult to spot feed him. He accepted a small portion of silversides just minutes after I acclimated him and placed him in the tank. Maybe some more color will appear soon.

You might want to try some food that is a little more high quality than silversides. There are some people who have had problems after feeding them to their nems.

I tried to feed my rbta silversides and it would not take them at all.

Thanks for the tips guys, what do you suggest I feed him? Krill? Shrimp?

Thawed PE mysis would be a good choice since it's so small and faded. Feed it a couple of times a week.

I feed mine shrimp from Krogers. It eats 1/2 a shrimp at a time. ( Split today). If the piece you give it ( the shrimp) is too big it will drop out.

I feed my RBTAs dried krill (soaked in tank water to reconstitute) plus they get whatever floats nearby.

Maybe try frozen krill as well?
