I feed it 2 or 3 whole krill and silver sides for a single serving, about every week or two. If you wanted, you could start with pieces of Krill and/or silver sides and see what happens.

Use caution if feeding something bigger like whole krill or silversides to a BTA. Feeding an anemone more than it can handle will result in it barfing the food back up which is not good on several levels.

PC lighting isnt the best for nems either. That may have something to do with its condition.

My normal coloured RBTA bleached to this colour after a tank crash due to an overheated tank. It took 6 to 8 months to recover. However, I was not feeding it everyday. It might recover faster if you fed it less or tried a different food. When I first got the anenome, I didn't feed it at all. Clowns would occasionally feed it - but other than that, it was completely photosynthetic.
