I want to know if I have strong enough lighting for a Bubble Tip Anemone. I don't know anything about my light and I threw away the box a long time ago so I looked up the model number on the company's website. http://www.current-usa.com/sunpaq.html I have the model number 2035. It is a compact fluorescent light. It says next to it "65 watt SmartPaq 10,000k Daylight/460nm Actinic".
I have a 65 gallon tank and there is a spot on the live rock that it can be placed that is about 10 inches from the light. Also I thought it was worth mentioning that my light sits on top of a glass top so the light goes through the glass before it would reach anything in the tank. Does this make the light significantly weaker?
My question is simply do I have sufficient lighting for a Bubble Tip Anemone(Entacmaea quadricolor)? I am fully aware of the other requirements such as water parameters, water flow, etc. and would not buy an anemone if I did not have suitable conditions.
Thanks for the help
