I have a 20 gallon tank, with a 96 watt coralife fixture. I have a BTA in my reef tank with halides. I would like to move him or either buy another one for my clownfish in my small tank. would this lighting be enough?

I shouldn't post this for millions to see, but if we were talking face to face... Lots of people have BTA's under PC's or VHO's, so I know it's possible. (Mine, didn't care so much for it), but take a pic of it the day you get it (or move it), then keep verifying the color... If it appears to be losing color, then the light is not enough and you can move it back to the tank with halides, or take it back to the LFS.
Are your clowns being hosted by anything right now??

My clowns are currently hosting a cup coral. So id like to get something with tentacles for them to swim around in. I just thought a bubble tip would be alright, its only 96 watts but the tank isnt very deep so i figured it would get plenty of light.

Yeah, it really depends on the individual anemone. Some do fine, some don't. Maybe you could try to find one that's already been under PC's for a while. Maybe a local reef society or something...
