looking for specific info on long tentacle anemones/preparing for one

[cracker]

My friend is slowly tearing down his 75 . I'm afraid He & his Lady have lost interest. This tank is in really bad condition. He's given me several Euphylia & recently a green bubble coral which I thought was a goner. It' about 90% whole after 6 /7 weeks now. Anyway the last critter is a good sized long tentacle. If he offers, I'd like to be ready. I googled & watched some utube clips but was looking for a good article or such. Any info for me? Thanks.

I'll have more info on my 180/new home soon. Thanks

so I got differing info on whether this type likes rock or anchoring to sand. I got that. also I did a par reading on these blackbox lights. I 1st tested at the lowest setting then turned all 6 to full. I'm very confident I can supply enough lighting for this critter. My concern is too much flow from these Gyres. I'd turn them down but I'm scared to try .I still don't know how I got them to ramp back & forth opposite of each other.

Hahahaha.
What I did (clearly I had more time in my life ) was watch vids and look at pics of nems in flow. Then took my best guess for placement with the flow I had.
