Can someone tell me how many watts per gallon.I have a 75 gallon which will be fowlr,but in future would like to get a anemone,some feather dusters,and easy corals possibly.I was looking at a jebo lighting system thats 220w with 10,000k bulbs and 10,000 Actinic Blue Bulbs.Will this be sufficient for what I want or should I disregard and look into something different.I'm a poor man playing in a rich mans hobby.Thanks for your answers saltwater gods :bowing:

Anemones would like more light than that. I have 135watts over a 29gallon and I think its probably the same ratio to have 220watts over a 75gallon, I wouldn't put another anemone in my tank with out better lighting. Do you know what kind of lights they are? Powe Compact, High Output, Very High Output??? That would help too, you could keep feather dusters with that.
I'm also in need of answers since i'm just starting my 38g FOWLR. I'm on tight budget, and was looking at the compact flourescent setup from Coralife. The double strip for my tank would be 130 total watts. Is this enough to keep any hardy anemones/corals? My LFS said it would be enough for a single anemone, and maybe some of the hardier mushroom corals, but I'm hesitant to believe them...
