I recently got a 90 gallon aquarium and it has no lid I'm doing a FOWLR tank. I was looking at a marineland LED lighting system with 600 lumens at my Lfs with 600 lumens. Would that be efficient enough for a fowlr tank? If not there is one with 1200 lumens and I'm also thinking about a couple anenomes I'm not sure what kind yet but will that have any effect on them? Also what type of Lid should I use since it would be a overhang type of lighting system. Thanks

You don't technically need any lighting for a FOWLR, so that will more than suffice.
 
Alright thanksbut what about anemones if I decide to get those?

If you plan on keeping nems get a better fixture. I always recommend the maxspect razor $400-$500.
 
If your going to spend the $ to light one anemone, you might as well make it a reef & get your $ worth.
