I have a coral tank and I keep my temperature at 76 degrees and it's only a 25 gallon tank and I just started about a year ago. I have a Kessel 360we light on the tank and I was wondering what intensity and color would be best for corals that need moderate light and I have the rose bubbletip anemone in there also. I'm gonna be upgrading to a bigger tank soon but I started out with this tank and the corals that I have are all LPS corals so I just wanted to start small and make sure that I could take care of these types of corals and the corals are doing good but the anemone keeps moving in the tank and I saw someone post on the forum about anemone cradles so I'm gonna buy one of those to try on it but what should I set my light at for the bubbletip anemone and will the corals be fine also with the light setting??

Did you recently add the nem? New additions will typically move all over the tank until they find the happy spot for them. Light and flow are the two main factors for them moving. Ive seen those cradles recently but not sure how much more effective at keeping them in place. Seems like if they are not happy with location they will move anyways. I run my leds at about 60%

Yeah I just got it about a month ago and it's moving to the back of the tank out of the light and then it shrinks up and I gotta get it and move it back into the light so I'm gonna order the cradle today to see if they help and I'm only running my light at 30 percent right now and I don't know whether to raise the intensity or not because it's a 25 gallon tank and someone told me that Kessel lights are strong and can bleach your corals quick so I don't know whether to raise the intensity or not
