Healthy anemone?

I was wondering if people would be willing to post pictures of well established Haitian Condys? I bought one with my nano clean up crew because I had wanted one for the tank, and I needed to add one more item to my cart to meet the minimum order. I know I didn't have the right lights, but the new lights will be on the tank soon. I half expected this thing to wither away or stay balled up til the new lights arrived, but after an accelerated acclimation it "jumped" out of the bag on to the very rock I wanted it on and hasn't moved since it arrived two days ago. It is moving in the current completely exposed and even ate the same day it arrived without hesitation. Also, any advice for lighting and specialized care needs would be appreciated, I found very little online for this particular species of Anemone.
 
What are the exact PAR needs for this type of anemone? I don't have access to a PAR meter at the moment, but my Nano Reef tank seems to be darker than my aggressive FOWLR tank, but this anemone seems to really be loving the one T5 fixture I have on the tank. I am setting up an HP LED for eventual corals, but the way this nem looks right now Im worried that might be WAY too much light in this tank.
