Pink tip and light?

[brrlong]

How much light does a pink tip anemone need? i have a coarlife 96x2watt light? ( i think is its info off the top of my head) in my 55 gallon tank.. will that be powerful enough to reach the bottom of my tank for a pink tip anemone? thanks

I would say no....Anemone's generally need 7+ WPG at minimum...

its not the wpg any more its the intensity of your lighting. if u put the anenome up further than it should be fine...but also anenomes are very tempermental. i mean i was able to keep a bta w/ my t-5s and i only have like 2.8 wpg. so its just the intensity.

What happened to it?

It's say no on an anemone.
Add a third 96 watt bulb and it might have a chance.
