question

[ilovesam08]

OK so I have heard way to many things. I am wondering what yall feed yalls BTA's. People keep telling me that they get enough food from the water... and I dont think thats true. So any help would be apperciated

 

[krb]

some people feed them silversides and what not, others don't feed anything directly

 

[ilovesam08]

what would you sugguest?

 

[ilovesam08]

the bta doesnt look bad.. just not all the way inflated.

Does the nem have a mate? My clowns tend to feed my BTA'. It is always fun to watch. Does his tentacles stay deflated? How old is the reef?

 

[ilovesam08]

[ilovesam08]

its not 'blown up' lookin like the other BTA i have seen .. is there something wrong or is that how it looks? and what do i feed him

I feed mine shrimp/squid/pellets/silversides. I vary it up a lil. Yes some people say they don't need to eat which is true. However, it'll be healthier if you feed it. God gave it a mouth and stinging cells for a reason .

 

[ilovesam08]

thanks all.. i am going to start feeding it a mixture as well
