he should find a spot he likes as long as no powehead or the such sucks him
up first.

feeding silversides is the best with deli shrimp next IMO. brine shrimp
aren't large enough to appeal to the anemone and I don't really think he
could catch enough of them to feed himself.

So would I just get a cooked (or raw) deli shrimp and put it near him or on
him?

a raw one, never feed anything cooked to anything in your tank.

you don't give it the whole shrimp either, just a 1/2" or so chunk depending
on the size of the anemone. they will spit out any left over's if you feed
to large a piece and this can foul your tank.
