Are you taliking about a condy? I am sure there are those who will say they have success keeping them with pc's. Many keep bta's with pc's, these are the least light demanding of all the host anemones. I assume you are not looking for a host anemone since you are considering a condy. Even with a bta, they need a lot of pc lighting. I would not consider trying with less than vho. I keep mine w/MH and T5's, had great success.
