I did a google on this subject....

Tank mates stealing food from Anemones...

I read it may be neccessary to "guard" the anemone at first until it
swallows it's food.

My question is, how long do I need to guard it on the individual feedings
(10 minutes?) and how long should it be neccessary to guard it (2 weeks?
more?)

TIA

i'v seen shrimp go inside the anemone and take the food out of their mouth
after it's swallowed. its best IMO/IME to feed everything else first and
then let the anemone eat in peace.
