Anemone ?

[ramsey]

I got to Perculus clowns I was looking for the right anemone. Iam looking for a anemone the is semi big "needs to fit in 10gal" and brightly colored but here is the bad thing. I was looking for something that will work under floresent light and that doesnt needed to be fed evey week are so. I was looking at a few but I know that these wount work but here they are: White Sebae, Pink Tip Haitian, Florida Condi, Peach Sebae. Those are what iam looking for. So any help is needed

Sorry ... that set up would be a death sentence for any anemone IMO.

I agree 100% with what Bigarn said. However, have u ever heard of tulip anemones? They dont get real big, but can live off fluorescent lights, and they DO host clowns!!!

Would the coarl life mini might acintic " not spelled right i no" but if has the double bulb with white and blue light. The size of the fixture is 9x6x2 and I will get two of them So then I will have 4 bulbs in all. So will these lights help the anemone live cause I wanting one so bad but i dont have the money to get mh lights " the light i found will cost me $50 for both."

Do you know the wattage of these lights?

 

[ramsey]

This is what i found. Two lamps are included: one 9 watt 03 actinic blue and one 9 watt 10,000k daylight.

No, that would not be enough lighting, and I dont know of a website where u can get the tulip anemones but my LFS has them all the time. Maybe see if they have some, or if they can order u a few.

IMO a 10g tank is too small for any hosting species of anemone, and you can't fit enough light on there without causing heating problems to support one. Tulip anemones will not host adult clowns.
Clowns would often accept corals as hosts. Think about getting some green hairy mushrooms.

 

[ramsey]

Is there somthing like anemone look a like the a clown will host and worh under that type of light I posted of.
and something other then the mushroom

Xenia, toadstools, or a frogspawn can host, but will the clown want them is a different story. Also, don't get puny corals or else the clown may stress it out too much. Aim for at least 3 times the length of the clown.
