Hi guys & gals,

I'm brand new here to this forum. I've had fish tanks off and on in the past, mostly brackish but am exploring reef tanks now.
I have a question tho: I have this light which is working well for my corals,

NICREW Saltwater Aquarium Light, Marine LED Fish Tank Light for Coral Reef Tanks,

But is it ok for anemones?

Welcome to R2R! If the light is growing corals, it should grow anemones.

Hey!
welcome
glad to have you
don't have experience with the model, but I expect it will - after the tank gets some months on it....

Hello and welcome. Sorry I cannot help on the anemone lighting question. There are different forums that can answer different questions. Maybe try the lighting forum?

Welcome to Reef2Reef!!

I looked at the reviews on Amazon and there are pictures of people with anemones on there tank using that light. However I don't know how successful they are long term from a picture.

Ideally you could rent a par meter and test the light output. See if you can get it in the ranges that anemones look for which is somewhere around 220 par.
