![]() On a side note ...
Are you able to run that 4 x 24 in pairs? One pair to start, then the second for mid-day? Only reason I ask is it seems a lot for the clowns in a QT if all they get is darkness, and then BAM 96 watts, especially of T5HO. I have a 15w T8 for my 20 that I'll use for fish, and a 65w PC for light dependant dudes. Last edited by gregzz4; 02-11-2012 at 12:09 AM. |

![]() There is an anemone in there so that one need a lot of light.
The clownfish don't mind the light at all either. I start actinic + fiji purple first, then the aquablue special kick in for about 6 hours. The anemone would probably not survive under PC. Quote:

![]() Well, I had to move the anemone to my main tank already because it was dying. It was so shriveled that I thought it would die that same day. The tentacles were flat and empty, with no substance. It was going worse each day.
I am not sure if it is the T5HO light, or the clownfish hosting already that bothered the anemone but it was going to die. After a day alone in the main tank, no host and good Pheonix 14K MH plus a bit of natural sunlight (one hour), the anemone has made an incredible come back. It is now beautifull and full. I just hope that there was no disease with it. Again I took it out in my hand to put it in the tank so very little of the water got into my tank. I had no choice, either lose the anemone or take the risk and put it in the main tank. I had the anemone with the clownfish in quarantine for 2 weeks now. I wish I could have keep it at least another week in quarantine.
