what to get
I have a ten gallon saltwater tank that i want to add maybe some coral most definite a anemone or two i asked gerwin and roger what kinda lights should i use and they told me a t8. i was reading and was wondering and should have asked them today about it but forgot. if i got a 24'' double system would that be to much for my ten gallon ? if i got it i would hang it over the tank thanks for the help

the t8 is the only lamps I have that will fit correctly over a 10 gal without hanging over the ends of the 20in tank, a t-8 power glow is 15 watts with a decent lumen output, for a anemone you should be fine maybe even some mushrooms etc, you just have to let us know were budget and functionality come together on this project and we can explain all the possibilities
