So I have a not-so-bright maroon clown, and he has recently started to host my anenome. He tends to be bullied my dottyback(want to kill it) and a midnight clown, literally have seen the midnight drag him by his fins. Anyway, when I go to feed, the maroon takes every piece he gets straight to the nem. He doesn't just put it there to come back too either. Again, he is slow, you can just tell a dumb/unaware fish. Has anyone had an issue where their clown was more worried about feeding the nem than eating for itself?
 
He is eating.  When I had my Maroon pair I would also see them eat whatever the anemone expelled.  It seemed like they didn't eat but certainly grew in size over time and appeared very healthy.  I would be more concerned about the bullying.
