I'm running a LED-retro'd cube and I have a RBTA and 2 clowns in it. I've noticed the anemone being extremely sensitive to the level of light I've got beating on it (we're talking 3W CREEs driven at 1A...), very (relatively, anyway) quickly adjusting its relative height in the tank by moving around as I play with the dimmers/switches, and moving to the back of the tank/under a ledge as I top it out at the full 1A.
I borrowed a PAR meter and the tank scored between 600-700 at the surface.
Can anyone comment on how light-loving their BTAs are? Especially in MH-levels of lighting, shallow-ish tanks, etc. I'd like to get a gut feel about whether or not I should go ahead and permanently move the anemone (and the clowns that love it) to some lower lighting conditions. (And just bake acros in the cube...)
