That make two of us Mark. I put my new BTA in my 20 gallon with PC lighting just to acclimate it and strengthen it through feeding before putting it in with my very attentive Maroon Clown fish. Well, 2 months later, and it looks as good or better than the BTA I kept in my 80 gallon tank. I have heard of others keeping BTAs under flourescent lighting, so while MH lighting is preferrable, "need", is probably a little strong. I really believe it is more of an intesity issue. An anenome 20 " in depth from flourescent lighting will probably not fare well.
This is all relative when viewed in the context of these creature living for decades in the ocean and five years at best in our tanks, eh?
