    som3 reef3r The like moderate to bright lighting. Mine are about 8" below the surface, directly under a 250MH. I think you could get away with less, but 24W PC is probably pushing it...

    Zegermans13 great picks; thanks for posting!

    i have three of these mini-carpet anemones in my tank. so far all is well. i can tll you they were hard to put in they wouldnt let go of my fingers. they really can grab hold. but the fish seem to know to not mess with them. when i bought them i thought they stayed small under 3 inches well they are at 4 inches now :( pretty though. all have deepened in color since being in my tank. not sure why?

    Maybe. Nems aren't like corals though, they'll move if there is something about the placement they don't like. So, you don't have as much say on where they end up. Maxi-minis don't move as much as some nems, but they certainly can move around. You can certainly be the Guinea pig for others if you want... You can't upgrade you biocube lighting? Get a diy kit or something.
