    I've had my rose bubble tip for months now and what a difference quality light makes. I still can't believe it. Heres some before and after pics of the same RBTA in my tank

    I have a 36" 6 bulb T-5 fixture with ATI bulbs. I've had a lot of growth with it

    Nice RBTA, and yes, anemones love the lights, as well as good flow, which I'm sure you already know! Keep it healthy!

    looks bleached in the first pic. Gorgeous, healthy, and settled in the second. I know you are running a tiny tank so if you need to ship and clones off Ill help you out.

    Thanks OFK. I feed 3 times a week with PE Mysis and on one of those days I give them a piece of silverside from Dr. G's line of food. That stuff is awesome.
