wrong temperature, infrequent feedings, placement (how close to light) in
tank (or just give them a spot to move too) and ammonia/nitrite/nitrate
level can all effect them badly

I am afraid it all goes down to lighting huh?
Well, I guess you are right. I will upgrade!
Thanks!

I have power compact lighting with (4) 65watt lights.
I've killed 3 nice looking bubble tip anemones.
I'm done with my killing spree !

You need a whole lot more light than what you have.

I am having an issue with anemones, they persist for a month then start
shrinking and eventually die.
If all parameters are good and there doesn't seem to be an issue in
eating what I supply, why they die?
Could light be a problem. This is a 65 tank with a 20 gal
mini-tank/sump configured in series with a FWLR arrangement. I have a
Coral Sun actinic 420 and a Aqua-Glo 30w.
What will most likely be the cause for my lack of success?
