ecoxotic Stunner strip

I was given three of these strips.One has all blue lights and two has mostly white with blue ones about every three white ones.I was just wondering if they gave off enough light for a nano tank with a anemone.I have no idea on intensity other than they are bright when I plug them in.I want to make a small tank for my daughter and of course she wants her Blemo(Black Nemo)in her own tank.So I just was curious if I could use these lights for the nano tank.

Stunners don't have much par but would look sweet and you could grow a lot of soft corals but I don't think a nem would get enough light but I could be wrong.

How many bulbs are on each strip? I have 24 LED's over my 32 gallon, but spacing and optics will make or break the fixture. You could have 100 LED's and still not have enough light if you did it a certain way.

Also, what size is the tank? Anemones are not easy to keep and take a lot of experience. They also like to wander, stinging anything in their path, and do not do well in nano tanks. My clowns host in xenia as well as a frogspawn and hammer, doesn't have to be an anemone...
