enough light???

[newreefers]

I have a 10 gal with a pair of false perks. I would like to get an anemone for them to host in. What kind would they like and could it live under 72W pc lights

well you need pristine water conditions which is extremely hard to do in nano tanks, i recommend keeping an anemone in 30+ gallon tank because in smaller tanks the water conditions fluctuate very easily making it stressful for the anemone

IMO a BTA would be OK. Quite a few people have them in 10 gallons with less light than you have. But as stated make sure your water chemistry is right on.

Imo, I would not keep an anenome in anyhting smaller then a 30g. not because of it being a challenge to keep the water stable but because they get so big and take up a lot of space. I've had a lta for about 2 months and it was about the size of half my fist now its about the size of my fist times 2. Also bta's split alot.

IMO, not in anything less than a 30 gallon and with no less than 130 watts PC on a 30.
