After being sucked into a power head about 5 times, my Condi finally managed to commit suicide! I finally found a fool proof method of stopping it’s suicidal tendencies but looks like the last attempt finally did it in. It was alive after that last incident, for a week, but clearly “bleached”, now it has disappeared. I guess it died and my Tiger Cowrie got it. So now I have recently purchased a Bubble tip. It is doing great and my Tomato Clown almost never leaves it. I understand that it is not easy to keep an Anemone in captivity. It has been 5 days and it seems to like this one rock as it has just been moving around it. My Condi never stayed put for the 2 months we had it. What should I be on the look out for with my Bubble tip ? I was told not to feed it for the first 5 days. I guess I will feed it today and then twice a week. Does the Bubble tip have a preferred diet besides shrimp ?

I read that it does not need feeding if a Clown hosts with it. Is that only true in theory ?

I always feed anemones 1-2 times a week. Feed them what ever they will eat. THey will usally take about anything. Silver sides, krill, shrimp, mysis shrimp, fresh fish, dead fish.
As long as you feed it and keep your water quality in check you should not have any problems.
