Light question in my QT

I brought home a maroon clown fish and a flower anemone yesterday and they are in my QT tank. They were not shipped here - I got them at my LFS, I've read that you should keep the lights out at first - how long should I not have them on? Should I try to feed the anemone?

Hi salty, you cantry and feed the anemone 24 hours after you have him in quarentine the lights should go on after a day that they have been in qt. Hope this helps. . .
