Nano Anenome ?

[Needles15]

Quick rather simple question.. Is there any anens that will do well in a nano reef?? Don't want to put anything in there that may harm my tank and/or the anen itself.. Thanks!

most anemones get far too large for a 10 gallon, with the exception of mini carpet anemone

Would I be able to put one of those in my tank then!??

how long has the tank been set up? what else do you have in there? what kind of lighting do you have?

It is a dual bulb.. The bulb are about 2 inches from the water surface and the anen would be about 5 inches under water .. This may be a dumb question.... Is the lighting that it would need and coral need for photosynthesis the actinic bulb or the daylight bulb?? I have both now.. And any idea if it would be too much light If I take out the bulb that's not so needed and replace it and have 2 of the ones that I need ??

Nope, leave one of each - I would only try a nem with a 4 bulb t5 on that size tank...
