Hey all, looking for some recommendations.

I have a 5 gallon softie only nano reef (mushroom, zoas, kenya tree, gsp) and I’m getting ready to ramp things up with my coral game. I recently upgraded my light and pump so I feel that my tank is ready for some LPS. I recently got this little guy and I know they can survive without an anemone, I’d like to get something for it to host.

The only problem is I’ve heard that BTA’s and other anemones will stampede and kill corals in search of a spot especially in a small tank like this.

My question is: are there any LPS or anemones that you would recommend for a porcelain anemone crab to host that will live peacefully with my other corals?

BTW.. Don’t mind the cyano. I’m working on it…

In that size of a tank rock flowers are your best choice. They don’t get too big and have a weak sting
 

Form or function: Do you consider your rock work to be art or the platform for your coral?
