Ok here’s my situation, I just bought a 29 tall and was wondering if 110watts of power compact lighting is enough for any of the host anemones
Ive been able to keep condy anemones, mushrooms, xenia, colts, zoo's and so forth with no problems and nothing seems to be showing any ill effects. my clown fish decided it would be a great idea to host on the overflow and its pretty sad if you ask me
i was thinking maybe a bubble tip anemone would work out
or maybe an LTA or Sebae

I have 4 BTA anenomes, encrusting gorgonia, 2 lobophylias, colt leather and zoos in my 45 reef. I only have 110W PC and the anenomes split regularly over the last 5 years. I dont really feed them that much, I just make sure they get a healthy dose of krill or mysis when i feed the clowns.

I wouldn't do a sebae , the LTA is marginal witht that much light - I'd stick to a regular BTA. It may brown up quite a bit too.
