Anemone.... what kind to get

[elvishpants]

Hey,
I want to get an anemone for my tank
looking for a red one.. see a couple of them in google pictures.. no idea what the name is...
can anyone help me

First of all...What size tank, how old is the tank?, what type of lighting?
those are the first and most important questions to begin with

75 gallon
2 - 55w compact - 50/50 bulbs
6 months old.. but it was upgraded from a 3 year old tank

OK...The bad news is that your lights will not support an anemone

You will need a good set of t5 and not just 2 bulbs or you can go with metal halide.
