Anemone lighting question

[thejiro]

I just found a nice anemone on the reef today I'm not sure if its a Florida Condi or a White Sebae..... My question is what kind of light I would need to keep it.......I have 130w of PC lighting.......65w 10k daylight and 65w actinic......is that sufficient???
thanks

Cant say without a pic but no hosting type anemones are found in Florida ( if thats were you found it, you did not say ) Did you take it ?? Not really clear in your post if you did.

Yeah it is was in florida and I did take it......it is in my tank with that lighting atm....but the the lights are off while it acclimates.... I was just wondering if theat lighting would be sufficient to sustain it or should I take it back to the reef so it doesnt die??
thanks

Actinoporus elegans
Arachnanthus nocturnus
Bartholomea annulata
Bartholomea cf. lucida
Condylactis gigantea
Condylactis passiflora
Epicystis crucifer
Lebrunia coralligens
Lebrunia danae
Stichodactyla helianthus
Viatrix globulifera
Those are all the anemones I could find that are found off the coast of Florida, but there are probably more. Yours could be any one of those. Can you get a pic of it?
Just a note: You should never release any animal back into the water after it touches your tank. It could potentially introduce foreign animals and parisites into the environment.

I dont have a digital camera so I cant post a picture but I am noe 95% sure it is a Florida Condi condylactis gigantea ......So would 130W PC be ok in a 29 gallon tank??
thanks

IMO nope. Add another 65 watt PC and it could have a chance.
