That's a Rock Flower anemone and was lit with two LED moonlights and 4 T-5s & they are two Purple Plus and two Blue Plus both made by ATI. According to the LFS guy, that combination is best for both growth and viewing.

I just replaced the 14K MH with a 21K Megachrome Blue. The corals seem to like it, I haven't noticed any decrease in CA or KH uptake so growth may be as good as the old 14K. Not sure about that yet, I will watch the tank carefully.
