I put an LTA in my tank after three months and it has done fine. He looks great, the clown loves him (although it took a couple of months) and he is the centerpiece of my little tank tank. To assume that you absolutely have to wait a year or so for an anenome seems a bit restrictive to me. Those comparing the care of a salt water invert to a child, while I understand the issue of caring for a living thing, really need to gain some perspective.
