    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    I have had one in that exact same tank model, although not under LED's.
    If your corals are doing well under that lighting a BTA should be fine.
    It's always a gamble adding any Anemone, but if you do not have many corals you should be safe.
    Personally I think they add a lot to a smaller tank like that. Just remember to do the routine water changes and you should be fine.

    Anemones need to be in well established tanks (6 months I believe) so that it won't have to go through fluctuating water quality and other stuff like that :p Someone correct me if I'm wrong. This is just what I've heard.

    Just make sure your powerhead doesn't suck up the anemone.
