Could I keep a Haddoni?

[KevinR840]

I've been resisting the urge to get an anemone for a year now. I have always found carpet anemones fascinating and I was wondering whether my tank could support one. I have a 55 gallon tank, that has a 6x54W T5 fixture above it, do you think this would be sufficient to keep a Haddoni?

Yeah - they dont need super strong light. As long as you have great water and good flow, 6x54 should be pretty good.

Ive been keeping one under PCs for quite a while now... and he is coloring up even more than when I got hi.

Do you have a sandbed?

What fish do you have in there?

tank parameters?

A picture of your setup will tell a thousand words. But also water params would be very helpful along with all your fish and inverts etc

Sand bed is 3 to 4 inches deep, the light fixture has individual reflectors,

Params:
Temp- 80
Nitrate-0
Nitrite-0
Ammonia-0
Calcium-390
ph- 8.3

Fish include a six line and a True Perc. clownfish, For inverts I have the clean up crew, and also a CBS. I understand it is a fish killer, and have accepted that.
