New Flower Anemone in QT - feeding question

I just bought a new anemone, he's been in the QT tank since Saturday-Yesterday I gave him a krill (spelling) and he grabbed right onto it and ate it. My question is, how often should I feed him? Daily, weekly?
Thanks

I have flower anemones that I've been keeping for years. They will eat most meaty foods, krill and mysis, squid, silversides, fresh table shrimp. I feed mine once a week approximately, sometimes I go closer to two weeks. It doesn't seem to make any difference, except they will grow faster with regular feedings.
