Can you give us some more information about your tank? Size, equipment, lighting? How old is the tank? Current water parameters? How much LR? etc...

You guys need to keep in mind that not everyone speaks English and those that don't sometimes have problems translating what they are trying to say.

I think whats hes trying to say is that he has a tank, water is fine, but his Anemone isnt doing well and or died, because it didnt have enough light.

I would say you are moving way to fast. Your tank is so new it ain't even crawling yet, but you want it to run. Don't buy anymore living things. Hang out on this website or read some books.
