Please look at my photo gallery pictures. As you can see from the picture of the tank front, it seems empty. I like my LR and it looks great, but the tank as a whole is missing something. I'd like to have an Anemone or something like that to add some interest. I've read that the Bubble Tip and Rose Anemone are a bit hardier than other types.

The current lighting is a single 15w 50/50 bulb. The salesman at my local Petco told me that that would be ok for an Anemone. I didn't believe him. He told me that the Anemone would move it's way up the LR to get more lighting. Is that true? Anyway, after looking at my pictures in my photo gallery, can I get some recommendations?

Thanks.
