In a 55 gallon tank can this succesfully keep a bubble tip anemone. Im just trying to figure out what the next pet in the tank will be?
Current inhabitants:
1- yellow tang
1- percula clown
1- royal gramma
2- engineer gobie (although 1 has been M.I.A)
15- turbo snail
10 scarlet hermitt crabs
1- brittle star
1- cleaner shrimp
2- baby camelback shrimp
1- arrow crab
65 pounds of live rock
4" sand bed

If your tank has been setup for at least 5 months then I'd say yes, it will most likely work out.

I agree, the longer you wait the better off you and the anemone will be. We added a BTA after about a year under the same lighting.

being that you have a 55 with only 4-65w PC's, i would say just watch it closely. it MIGHT not be enough light for it, but then again it might be. we have a RBTA in a 29g with 2-96w PC's over it and it is doing great. but with having the 65's over a 55 its much larger of a area to cover. also like everyone said, the longer you wait the better. and how much rock do you have in there? just wondering.

in a 55gal with 4 65 watts is fine for BTAs in fact you could probably get away with a BTA in 4 55watt lights in a 55gal
