Is T5 2x39w sufficient for maintaining anemone?

Yo reefers! I'm wondering if any of you are successful in keeping an anemone using T5 lights? Is the light sufficient to keep a small anemone or not?

[Tanga]

Yes it can survive but will climb up the rocks and will go near the water surface.

[Panzz]

yes it will be but it depends greatly on how deep your tank is.

My tank is about 1.5ft in height... intending to place it midway to near surface area...

i am using 2 x 14W white, 2 x 14W blue, i got an anemone inside the tank, and its at around 1 foot depth, its very happy at that location... never moved a single inch...

huh?.. I tot anemone always move around? They will probably stay at the place they feel most comfortable..

[Panzz]

anemone do not always move around. when they always move, it means that the water quality around them does not suit them, and so they move in search of areas with better water quality or even light.

for 1.5ft, the lights should be sufficient.
