I have a 150w MH 20,000k HOB and I am interested in getting an anemone but I dont know if i have good enough lighting. I wouldnt mind purchasing more lighting but I dont really want to get rid of the current one I have I would just like to add on. I dont really have any ideas either. Cause If I purchased PC's it would block the MH light. Does anyone happen to have any ideas?

150 W should be okay for some species if the fixture is good and the anemone has rock near the top of the tank. How big is this setup, and what kind of anemone did you want?

I have a 38g tank right now, most likely a BTA or a sabae, The MH is a coralife aqualight advanced 150mh 20k

The BTA is likely a good bet. I'd make sure there was rock near the top of the tank. The size of the tank is a bit on the small end. I have a BTA in a 29g with no fish, and it's a bit of a squeeze, filter-wise. I am not as familiar with the sebae anemones.
