Anemone spot feeding

Hi guys,

Can anyone recommend any good foods to feed a bubble tip anemone, other than krill?

mine eats raw scallop, squid, shrimp. i think some people feed silversides. dont feed pieces that are too large.

I make a mix of frzn foods (mostly mysis) and squirt that in. Must work since the BTAs are growing like crazy.

Ok, this may be a stupid question, but what is a "silverside" anyways?

Silversides are a small whole fish, and should be available frozen at your LFS. They usually have to be cut at least in half per feeding. My RBTAs will puke them back up because they are too big.
