Mantis and anemones.

My lfs has beautiful mini maxi carpet anemome for a cheap price I want to add one to my display reef. But then I got to thinking and could I add one to my mantis reef? Would the anemome eat the mantis? It's a ciliata spearer mantis. Roughly 3 Inches. This is a 6 gallon pico at the moment. Until I upgrade. All input welcome.

I'm doing more research as we speak

They should be fine together. I've been housed a helfire anemone with a few species of mantis, and they don't really seem to notice each others existence.
