Hey all I've had my tank up and running for about a year now and I'm running a 65gallon reef tank with 4 HO t5 bulbs recently picked up an unusual bubble tip which is green and red when fully out in the lights. My question is that it's tentacles aren't sticky so I'm wondering how and what I should I feed it because its gone the bathroom twice already in the four days I've had it. Any advice would e great since I'm newish to anemones although I do work at a pet store I know some things

BTA's don't typically have that "sticky" of tentacles.

if you place mysis on its tips does it hold on to it?

Well I think it may have been the overall stress from shipping it ate this morning after about 5 days in my tank

sometimes they just need to get internally acclimated to the new tank. As long as its holding on, not bleached, and not spewing its filaments.... it should be ok
