You need alot more light. Depending on the sp. of anemone, you will
should only be attempting the Bubble-Tip Sp. as they are the most
adaptable to aquaria.

I would suggest nothing less than PC Powercompact bulbs, of 65 watts,
atleast 4 bulbs for 65g tank.

You didnt specify water flow, which is another huge part of there
envirnonment. You need ATLEAST a flowrate equal to 10x the tank size.
So for 65g tank, you would need 650 gallon per hour circulation. I
would say most anemones need 15x-20x flowrate, with addition of power
heads within the tank.

Please only purchase bubble-tips because this variety is not in any
risk of endangerment, as many sp. of anemones are!

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?
