Nano lighting for BTA

[Bpones]

Hi Y’all!

I’ve been having a lot of fun with a nano tank I threw together from mostly spare parts in my garage. I’m now thinking of putting in a bubble tip anemone.

For lighting I’ve been using a twinstar light that’s typically meant for a planted freshwater tank. It’s been doing a great job with softies and macros. I’m curious if y’all think that success would translate to a BTA or if I should upgrade my lighting.

Cheers!

Here’s a little video of the tank I posted to Reddit.

can you provide a link to the details of the light? BTAs generally like higher PAR than that required by softies and macros.

It’s a second hand light so I’m not sure if this is exactly it or not. I realize that not so helpful.
I’m leaning towards needing an upgrade. Leathers are all putting on good growth but I’d hate to have a nem struggle.
