You may keep anemone in tanks with sps and lps but you must keep a good distant due to their aggresive stings. Also most anemones will move about in the tank until it finds a spot where it likes. Thus killing or harming many corals on their path. I would say if you want to add anemone it'll be the first to be in there. Wait til the anemones settled down into one spot then you can add corals in a good distant from where the anemone is.

Got Reef?
I have 3 anemones in my 55g Reef. I have a Carpet, a BTA, and a LTA. I have an assortment of LPS and a few SPS, and many inverts. I agree with letting them settle in and finding a spot they like before adding coral. If you cannot do that then just moniter it. You might have to move some things around.

I have an LTA and sebae in my 90.
They were first and well settled b4 adding anything other than fish.
Mushy's don't seem to be bothered, but my sinularia and star polyps were definitely affected, and had to be moved.
I try to keep 3 to 4" distance, but it's getting harder as both nems
are about 14" in diameter now
