No, I don't think that is enough light. I pictured the lamp sitting directly on top of the tank.

dufus
well it is something like that but with watts compact screw (the shortest available), i'll post a picture of it later.

Wasserpest
if it's directly on top, will 5 watts enough, or should i get a higher lighting, seomething like 13 watts?

with it that far above, i'd you for 13-18 wwatts, to give you low light, but enough to grow the anubias.
