Caring for these beautiful creatures

Is your anemone starving?

I have found some old pictures of anemones that I had that were starving.

They are about 4 years old but found them in an old file so will share them with you.

They were some of my first Anemones that arrived  bleached and wouldn't eat.
 I finally got them to eat but they continued to look like this for months, only taking Mysis shrimp every few days.

They finally recovered after several months but it was touch and go for a long time

Tentacles will be very small to almost none.
I refer to them as nubs.
 They will not grasp food at all. Mouth will show stress most of the time

These were force feed Mysis shrimp directly into their  mouths to keep them alive until their  recovery.
