Recently I discovered that I was dosing alk entirely wrong, and I burned some of my corals, and my nem. The thread about it can be seen here:

My BTA seemed to start recovering, and picked an area at the very top of the tank to be in, but in the last few days has seemed to go downhill a bit again. In the case that he doesn’t make it, I’m tossing around the idea of a sebae anemone. I’ve always liked them a lot, but i hear they grow up to 20” across. Is this a similar statistic to btas where most of the time they end up splitting before hitting that size, or is this different? My tank is 90g(48x18x26) so technically it would fit, but I don’t want it to not leave room for my corals to grow.

Given this current setup, do you think I could do it?

They usually grow to about 12" across, you'll be fine as far as room goes. They also like a deep sand bed to set their foot, which you have.
Check out this article, it has some really good information.
