    I'm currently consolidating a few tanks and have always wanted a green carpet anemone. I'm taking my 5-6" angels and some other larger tangs an butterflys and setting up a fowlr in my 210. I'm going to have a large CUC and metal halide lights with PC also. I want to have a few anemones and think the carpet will be a good fit for this system. My cuc will consist of hermit crabs, snails, several types of shrimp and maybe a star of some sort. I already have the cuc except the star. I also was thinking of an urchin of some sort. So will there be any issues with these critters?

    I've got a red sea bannerfish(heiniochis intermedious). I thought with carpets powerful stings the heini would leave it alone?
