Never had an issue with BTA's taking down fish. I would think the fish would need to be seriously ill or already dead for the anemone to take it, even then probably questionable because in my experience they tend to only prefer a certain food size and most fish, even the smaller ones tend to be beyond that.

In my opinion the ones you really need to watch are the carpets. S. haddoni is a notorious fish-eater.

My S. gigantea does not appear to be as bad though. In fact my mandarin will sleep right in front of it. I was a bit concerned the first time I saw it but it seems a sleeping mandarin is pretty much ignored by everyone, must be that slime coat or something.
