setting up just a simple 20 gallon long tank. looking to add 2 clowns and eventually a BTA or some other form of anemones. just undecided about the type of light I need. I'm not looking to spend a lot but enough for a descent light. recommendations?

For a 20 long, you have several options depending on budget and what you are trying to accomplish. I would probably go with a pair of AI Prime HD. You could also use a CBB (like mars aqua or Viparspectra), Hipargero, or even a couple of PAR38 bulbs (like the ABI).
