This anenome worth putting in tank

I made the mistake of adding RBTA in my tank and now I have a ton that are hard to remove since they are in my rock work and walk all over. I ended up getting this guy, a tube anenome. They don’t move and look amazing. They need a sand bed. You bury their tube in sand like planting a bulb. They don’t walk like other anenomes. Just need to keep away from other corals as they have a strong sting.

Always wanted one but heard not easy to care for as they require cooler water than reef from what I remember.

They are absolutely beautiful but non photosynthetic which means direct feeding. I myself know how lazy I get with as many tanks as I have so I would definitely end up neglecting it.
 
Yes that’s the only issue being non photosynthetic, but I do hand feed seaweed once a day and hopefully I can keep it happy with mysis, clams and shrimp. It does grab food from my tongs and bring to its mouth which is pretty neat
