Bubble tip anemone

Could I have a BTA in a 14 reef tank? All of my parameters meet the care requirements except my gallon size. I wanna see if there’s ways to get around that.

yes, depending on your light

What kind of light would you recommend? Affordable yet effective.

You can have one in a 14-day-old tank, but I personally would not recommend it. Your tank is still maturing, and is going through the initial tank start up phases. You can have one in there, but it might struggle or ultimately die.

Depends on what else is in your tank too. You should consider an anemone more as a fish more than a coral. They will eat and produce waste so if you already have a full load or more of fish I may consider putting off adding anemone until I had a very solid handle on managing nutrients and a stable tank.
