Long ago, I had an Atlantic anemone. If it wasn't hungry, it would toss the food
aside and I would take the food out of the tank. If a bubble-tip behaves the
same way, it wouldn't hurt anything to try to feed it more often.

It behaves the same way.
And it is much better to feed it more often, like every other day,
with small portions, than to give it a big chunk of meat it cannot
penetrate with its digestive juices once a month...
Try to thaw some frozen brine shrimp or mysids and squirt
some of this "soup" with a turkey baster towards the anemone.
Whatever is left it will be picked up by fish gladly and cleaning crew.

Once a while you can give it a larger pieces, like whole krill
or a piece of bigger prawns from the grocery store...
Make sure you do not feed it with only muscle tissue - as all
carnivoures, anemone will benefit from the whole prey animals: heads,
guts, digestive tract with digested plants matter - all the good stuff :-)
