Tube anemone as killers/hunters of fish is an Urban Myth.

^^ Good read. Interesting that although they should be mainly filter feeders, many here seem to have experiences where they ate fish. I wonder if they are simply not getting what they need from these tanks and take the opportunity to eat a fish that happens to rest on them?
I only have about 5 minutes experience keeping a tube anenome because I tried one in with my puffers, so I don't know anything about them really except they look cool.

Either you have a very large tube anemone or a very small lion. My tube anemones reject anything bigger then half an inch
