Anemone Eating?

[Russian123]

I took my turkey baster sucked in some brine shrimp and slowly pushed some shrimp by the arms of the anemone and it reacted by shrinking up for a while is this the anemone eating?

yep...it will bring the food to its mouth with its tentacles. Also, any movement around him will cause it shrink up a bit. he should be fine!

Yeah this is normal behavior. I would try and feed it some pieces of Krill or Silversides brine shrimp really dont have a lot of nutritional value.
