I have no personal experience with anemones. However, its heard often that anemones need stable water parameters. Stable water parameters will be a harder to accomplish in a newer system, especially a nano. But hey, every system is different and only time will tell which is why I said just wait and see before adding anything else.

Should wait about 6 months normally but of course you can do whatever and still have success. Just have to take your chances. I got mine at about 5-6months. It's doing great. It found a spot in the beginning but has been moving randomly. Unfortunately with my recent circumstances I can't really keep track of everything and do everything how I want to. But as long as it's pretty stable you should be fine. Just feed it and have good lighting as well.

Tank has been running beautiful. Water parameters are spot on and have been doing a weekly water change of 20 liters of natural water. I also added a crispa anenome and hammer and frogspawn. The crispa turned out to be about twice the size advertised but ohwell ill just deal with it.
