I'm looking at setting up new marine tank (I'm new to marine, but have several FW tanks). It looks like what I aim going to be aiming for is FOWLR (for now). It just seems easier and I don't want to get in over my head too quickly. Having said that, a large part of why I even WANT a marine tank is that I love clown fish (It has nothing to do with the movie, I promise).
It's my understanding that a clown fish really needs to be paired with an anemone. Anemone sounds like it needs some serious light. I'm hoping to keep the day-to-day electrical consumption a lot lower than 500W of MH lighting will allow.
So, the question: Can I keep a few anemone in a tank happy/healthy with only T5 or LED lighting? If so...how many should I be looking at?
Thanks in advance!!
