how old of a tank is it, and what type of anemone?

Well... isn't that just gloom and doom!

But honestly... if this is a new tank (<6 months old) then its odds aren't good. And in that small of a tank, if you're not on top of water changes to keep the water conditions pristine, that won't help either. I think the advice originally given really boils down to "it ain't easy to keep an anemone in a nano".

What type of lighting?
