Large Carpet anemone

I have a large carpet anemone that has plunked its self down in the sand in the canter of my tank. It is approx. about 9-10 inches in diameter when it is all opened up maybe larger. I recently added (this last Wednesday) a powder blue and a manderin goby. I have never seen the goby since and cannot find a corpse. Last night when I turned the light off the powder blue was swimming around perfectly fine, when I went to feed them first thing this morning there was no sight of it anywhere. I had hoped it was just hiding out for the am but it is now 2:00 pm and still no sight and no corpse anywhere. Is it possible that my anemone ate these fish?

Mandarin gobies should not be in a tank with anemones. They are very prone to getting stung and eaten, as yours probably was.
