Please reallize that the people who have posted are trying to look out for the life of the anemones not to give you a hard time. Some of the posts seemed a bit harsh to me but your system is really not ready for these animals and that is what everyone has been trying to say.
Even if you go get proper lighting today your tank is still just not ready.
Anemones have a very slow metabolism and will hide illness for months before there are any visible effectc. Meanwhile they are slowly dying.
One other thing to mention is do you know how big these guys get? I am not sure how big your tank is but there is no way I would put 3 in my 6ft 125. They all get rather large.
