    So I have one True perc in my tank right now, wild caught, and he finally found my RTBA 3 days ago and has been obsessed with it since then. My question is will clowns always feed their anemone or should I try and keep giving him silverside pieces? Kinda think the clown isnt gonna let me do that though..

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    If the BTA's coloration is good and it is fully expanding. You do not really need to worry about feeding it often or even at all. What little food is gets from the clown if fine. Lighting and water parameters are far more important IMO.

    One of the main reasons I feed mine is because they are under pc lighting and they tend to clone quicker with given supplemental feedings.
