Hi, I have a coralife 30" dual bulb T5 10000k 65w fixture, one is a daylight bulb, one is actinic. The light is hanging approximately 6 inches from the top of the tank, the tank is a 4g Evolve. I have the stock return in the tank, but water movement seems decent. Could I keep any anemones in the tank? Really worried about the lighting.

Light would be the least of my worries in a 4gallon. I would try for more stable environment

Stability isnt the problem right now, its stable and looking good. Just wondering about the light, thanks for the input though :]

His point is, you have a much harder time with 4g if the nem goes sideways and you have no room for error, and if the 4g has a chemistry issue, you no room for error.

In a tank that small I think you are looking at a rock/flower anemone or one of those mini/maxi carpets.
