I’ve seen a lot of mixed posts regarding the parameters for anemones. I’ve been looking to get one and there are many recommended nitrate/phosphate ranges. Since I’m looking to get one soon I was wondering if my parameters for nitrates/phosphates were ok.
1.3 ppm phos
17 ppm nitrate
 
I try to keep my water as clean as I can and feed the anemone as needed. I have a lot of fish and never measure my phosphate or nitrate.
 
I have a bunch of RFA and a BTA in “dirty” water and 3 BTA in “clean” water, so I think it might depend on the nem and how your tank flow & lighting are as well as whether they are ones that want to be fed by more than the lights!
