Hi everyone,
I have recently added an SRBTA to my 20 gallon AIO. The nem looked healthy when receiving shipment and did well during the acclimation process and has found itself a nice spot in the rocks. I have a RedSea ReefLED50 and will attach a photo of my lighting schedule below. I’m a little concerned that the nem is stretching out for more light, as I’m doing an acclimation period increasing the light. Now I’m aware that Sherman’s tend to have more stringy tentacles, which could just be the case for the nem looking more stretched out looking for light.
The two questions i’ve got are:
1.) Is this lighting period enough for the anemone?
2.) Should I make any adjustments to/ scrap the lighting acclimation period?
here are some photos of the nem, of which my clowns have already hosted
