Looks like a Condi....answer to your question is, depends on what you are going to keep in your tank....I have a Long Tentical Anemone (LTA) aka cork screw anemone, that I have in my Softy tank, it was 4 inches across when I bought it and now it is over 12 inches across in a 75 gal. tank....if it wasn't home to my two Clarkii Clowns I would have gave it back to my LFS long ago. Anemone's like to up root and move around the tank every now and then and they usally have a greater STING than my softy corals, so the possibility of my LTA killing one or more of my corals is pretty good...also the larger they get the better chance of a prized fish or shrimp getting caught and eaten increases.....my LTA can eat large silver sides with no problem.
