In your experience, could I get away with a dedicated 24 x 24 x 18 or 24 tank for a gigantea? Pair of clowns and live rock too. I have an Ice Cap electronic driven 150 HQI PFO set up, but was wondering if I would need to go up to a 250 watt set up for this anenome and what spectrum would be best for this type?
 
I have 2 in a 24x24x12. It's a little crowded with 2 but it's a perfect size for 1. I use a single 175W Iwasaki 14k (more like a "true 10k") for lighting.

You might be able to get away with 150w for a while but IME 150W isn't as much as wanted, you might want more. I get by fine with my 175w because the tank is shallow and the Iwasaki has an amazing punch for a light in that wattage.

Here's a picture:

i would go 250w, 175 with only the iwasaki if you want to change bulbs youll have to go to a 250w
