Reply With QuoteActually if you plan to keep an Anemone, I would suggest you look into Metal Halide lighting. Otherwise, VHO or Power Compacts will be good choices for soft and most LPS corals.

POwer Compacts nor VHO provide enough intense light to sustain Anemones. I recommend Metal Halie only for Anemones.

I also agree that the concentrated intense light of metal halides is ideal for Anemones.
