Adding anemone to baby clown tank

[thedasher]

I was wondering if I'd be able to add an anemone to my baby clownfish tank, the babies are 20 days old and 10 days old. Are they still to young?

thanks I forgot these were ocean animals for a second lol. Also would a t8 bulb or regular 15w bulb be enough light for an anemone?

No they need very strong lights, t5 metal halide, strong leds.

OK just making sure because that's the current lighting in the baby clown tank, so I'll just keep it in my display tank.
Thanks

When I was breeding clownfish in the 90s I've put a H. magnifica into my larva tank with 3 weeks old ocellaris and it took only minutes until all (at least 400) where in the anemone.

I have seen a picture of an at most one week old larva in an anemone. I would say as soon as they develop the head band they will definitely go into an anemone (as long as it is one of their natural hosts)
