Lighting Requirement.... Mr-Moonlight 06-13-2005

Hi!

I'd like, once my tank is settled, to add a pink tipped anemone to my
tank. I KNOW I need more light but noone can agree on how much...

My tank is 40"L x 15"w x 18" deep (although its only filled to 15")

It has 2" substrate in the bottom and 27kg of live rock.


How much light do I need? What wattage?

Thanks for your help....

Dan

My E. Quad is doing GREAT with 150W over 20 Gallons..
That is 7.5W per gallon on my tank......

I kept a Pink Tip Condy under 80w of crappy lighting. Not only did it do
fine, it ate all my Green Chromies one a night until they were all gone. I
don't think Condys need much lighting. Be aware that they move around and
can get sucked in to any filter intakes. That's how mine died.
