You won't have a heat issue as long as you have the T5 setup on legs and not sitting on the top of your tank. side note- my 20gal i have 96watts and my lid sits right on top of the tank a inch of clearance above my glass lid. I like glass lids for safety and keeping dirt out. gases can move out of the tank from where the filters are. plus hoods have fans on them. having a one year old knocking into everything the leg stand idea made me nervous.
Got it !!!
However......I have a top that comes down on a hinge and its a wood top. Is it safe to mount it to the underside of the top.
You guys RULE !!!!!

I also agree that it is a Sebae anemone.
Looks like a sebae to me, and it looks dyed... but i could be wrong

you can kill an anemone by over feeding it... and i also agree.. half a piece of shrimp is way too much.
convbmw, How long has your tank been up and running?

Sorry for the delay, for me, 1.5 years.

yes. problem is the fan/fans on the hood won't be able to push the air away or get fresh air. so you would have to cut vents,or add a pusher and puller fan on to your wood cover.

Looks like a sebae to me as well. And I agree about the overfeeding. I also firmly believe that if you're going to feed an anemone, chop the food up and only give it a little bit so it can digest it properly. We've had a bta for almost a year and a sebae for over 6 months and I've never seen either one expel waste.

sorry man. now you know to stay away from yellow and white anemones. it was just to late,some people luck out and have a anemone that has not been bleached or dyed for very long and they come back. i would not buy from that LFS again.
