I was under the impression, like the advertising always says, that it stimulates the anemone zooxanthellae (sp hehe) and provides important spectrum and is important for the well being of the anemone. Please let me know the best combination based on your knowledge. I was thinking I could get two 6700k 96’s and then add on one normal output 30 watt actinic, I don’t want to waste 96 watts of my PC ballast on a bulb that isn’t giving my anemone what it needs. Thanks for any advice, opinions, etc, Dennis Lamp colors and Refugiums 1
