Will Long Tentacle Anemone Eat My Fish?

[CaptLongRod]

Hello. I don't normally buy livestock from Petco, but they had this large long tentacle anemone for 35 bucks. It had several clownfish basking in it. I have a black clown, a couple of gobies, and a six line wrasse in a 24 gallon nano with 150 watt metal halide. I really want to get it for the tank, but will it eat my fish? Thank you for your help - Capt. Long Rod

That's going to be alot of nem in not alot of tank, and leave very little swim space.
It will be very easy for fish to run into it, and yes, if they do, it will sting them for sure, and good chance that will make snacks of them.

Any anemone will eat a fish if it can get a hold of it. I have never lost a fish they usually know better. But if you have any shrimp they tend to like to steal food from them and one person told me a cleaner shrimp got caught in him they learned the hard way.
