Anemone lighting percentage

[reef caretaker]

Is 100 percent blue light and 50 percent white light better for anemones?

 

[crazyfishmom]

Those numbers will depend on a lot of things. What kind of lights do you have?

 

[reef caretaker]

I have a current which is currently set to 50 percent white and 100 percent blue

Is better than what?
All blue?
Which nem?

 

[reef caretaker]

No I am saying what is the best setup for lighting for an anemone based on percentage on the color

Can you list the specs of that light? I have a feeling it is underpowered for an anemone. Especially since your tank is pretty high, so the nem is far from the light.

Factors are what size tank, what type of light and wattage of the light
Nems do nest in Moderate light and moderate water flow. Too much light and flow and they will hide and move. Too little and they will climb or shrivel up

Current makes a million lights in different configurations.
Which current USA are you using….


White is not a requirement. Make your corals pop and the nem will find his own spot.
