1. I have 2 false percs and there were only 2 anemones that host perculas one was a carpet anemone and the other was a Ritteri anemone neither of which is one I plan on getting. Has anyone had any experiences with false percs hosting in a bta? Mine switch between hosting in my hammer and hosting in a mat of zoas. I think that since they exhibit a hosting behavior they should be fine but if I need to get a different pair, I would rather do it before I put them in the new tank.
False Percs are very picky when it comes to Hosting Anemones, so the answer is possibly but it could take a while especially if they're already being hosted by a Hammer.

2. I read that anemones have some natural predators, one being large worms. I know for a fact that I have some rather larger bristle worms in the rock that's in the anemone tank. Should I try to remove them?
I would be concerned with Butterfly fish not the Bristle worms. If you had the Sp. of Bristle worms that were harmfull all of your soft corals would've been already on the menu.
