So like the title says, do I have enough light for a BTA, if its high up on the rock?

4 x 24w t5 on a 20H:
2 x Actinic
2 x 10k

Thanks!
 
Need to know tank size? As far as it staying on the rock, anenomes move around alot. They find a spot where they are comfortable with and it`s usually not what we want.

Tank is a 20H(tall) I had it right after the light.

Lol oh my bad. I wouldn't say that's low light more like moderate. I'm not the best with anemone lighting but that sounds pretty good.
 
Sounds like that would be enough light. Like Melosu said, you can start it off where you want it, but it will decide where it wants to be. Make sure there isn't anything in its path, it will kill most corals, roaming over them.
