pink tip anemone

SFW has pink tip haitian anemones on sale and I was wondering if it would be a good idea to try to add this to my tank. I have a 44 gal (11 mos old), water parameters good, with lots of powerheads for flow, skimmer and small refugium too. So far I have 1 true percula, 1 flame angel, 1 blue yellowtail damsel, 1 lawnmower blenny, 1 emerald crab and many bluelegs and red reef crabs, plus turbo, nassarius and cerith snails; 3 assorted mushrooms, 1 leather (toadstool) and 6 or 7 featherdusters of various sizes. This is my first tank so I've been adding slowly and uncertain over the care of an anemone. If not for what seems to be a great price for the pink tip, I was more inclined to eventually purchase a non-anemone host for my clown. Any recommendations? :thinking:

What lights do you have?
Pink tip haitians are not natural hosts to clowns, but often will host them in captivity. It's more likely to happen if you get a Pacific anemone like a BTA.
