HOW LONG SHOULD I WAIT BEFORE I PUT AN ANENOME IN THE TANK...THE TANK HAS BEEN FULLY CYCLED AND HAS TWO FISH,CLOWN & A DMSEL.IT IS A 46G TANK AND A CORALIFE LUNAR 96 WATT LIGHT.?????IVE HEARD 6 MONTHS TO A YEAR.... IS THIS TRUE?

They require an well established tank 6 months to a year sounds about right, if you plan on getting one then it will give you time to upgrade your lighting as i do not believe you have sufficient wattage to sustain one at this time.

I MEANT TO SAY THEY WILL BE DUAL 96W CORALIFE.

Id suggest metal halides to give the the best lighting possible.

I'll the research I have done points to the high mortality of these animals in captivity. Do some research then decide. I have a 40g w refuge and sump. Also 220watts of pc and will not take that chance. When you spell it right, then decide.....Just Kidding

Some are much more difficult than others, as far as ligthing(all require near perfect water quality) check it out, and good luck.
