Will a rock anemone grow under a 24w PC? I want one to host sexy shrimp.

might be okay over a shallow tank. I was using pc on my 29 gallon tall tank and my anemone wasn't doing great.

I've seen people do it, but i wouldnt recommend it.
Water quality and stability is an issue in a smaller tank, along with their growth rate.

+1 if the coral becomes bleached then you needa change stuff up.

I would get a BTA instead.
Make sure your running at least 1 extra Koralia Nano in the tank though.

Rock/Flower anemones are pretty tough and do okay even in lower light. I don't think you'll have too much of a problem with this particular one. Don't expect the brightly colored ones to stay as colorful, though.
