Default Sebae anemone shrinking with light?

Hi,

I have a nice sebae anemone (quite small still) that is expending a lot at night and as soon as my T5HO come on it shrink. Does it have too much light? It is in quarantine with my clownfish for about 10 days now and scheduled to be transfered into my 75 gallons with 250 watt 14 Phoenix in about 2 more weeks. It is in my 20 gallons nano standard tank that is well cycled with liverock and water parameters are perfect, salinity 1.025, calcium 420, alkalinity 7.5, ph 8.3, ammonia, nitritres and nitrates 0.

I have 4 x 24 watt T5HO, 2 aquablue special, 1 fiji purple and 1 actinic. In the morning before the light turn on it is quite large.

one of my small clownfish is being hosted by the anemone, and I feed it each day a little bit of food and it seem to eat.

Here is video of the anemone. It is light brown in the body with tentacles going pink to white:

Also is the clownfish hosting detrimental to the anemone at this point?
