Hi all - I have a Fluval evo 52L/13.5G nano mixed reef. There’s a feather duster worm in the left hand corner. My LFS has a tube nem. From reading tube nems are NPS - my question is whether they can be placed next to the feather duster or are they likely to cause issues?

TIA!
 
From my understanding (I've never had one), tube Anemones have a pretty powerful sting. I'd be concerned that the Anemone could/would kill the Feather Duster.

Thanks very much. Read a bit more about it and sounds like it will kill everyone and everything it comes in contact with in my nano. Glad I didn’t go for the impulse purchase!
