I am new to the boards but have been poking around alot lately and gotten quite a bit of info.
I have a 55g Saltwater tank setup w/ 60lbs of liverock, 100gph protien skimmer, 50g aquaclear bio filter (just in case). My water is pretty much always 0,0,0 ph 8.2
Fish:
2x 3" False percs
1x 3" sixline wrasse
1x 10" snowflake eel
1 hidden jawfish
1x skunk cleaner shrimp
~dozen blue footed hermit crabs
6 white shrimp (soon to be gone once the wrasse and eel realize they are there to be eaten
I plan on adding a mandarin dragonet and probably a convict tang in the next couple weeks.
I just purchased this light from Dr. Foster's and Smith:

Nova Extreme T-5 Fixtures w/Lunar Lights
48" 216 watts (4-54 watt bulbs) and 4 lunars.
This gives me ~3.9watts per gallon.
I am interested in starting to place in some sea life along the lines of Anemones.
Is this sufficeint lighting?
What would be a good place to start with Anemones, some are more hearty than others.

Before the salt I also ran, and still run, a 20g mildly brackish tank (my first tank) w/ 30g aquaclear bio filter.
Fish:
4" white sailfin molly
2" spotted puffer
2" mono sabae (soon to be in the salt water )
5" golden severum
3" blue gourami
4" rafael striped cat
2x 1/2" black/white clown goby things (my girlfriend liked them)
