I am getting ready to purchase an established 120g reef ready tank. It comes with LR and Sand. Currently I have a 60g bowfront tank with the following residents.
2 - Clowns (false percs)
4- Green Chromis
1- Lightening damsel
2- Yellow tail damsel
1- Emerald Crab
1- Scooter Dragonette
and clean up crew (several hermits, turbos and Astrea snails).

I would like to get a Stichodactyla Haddoni for my clowns and need to know of the fish listed above, which would be alright to leave in the current tank should I get the carpet anenome. Or better yet, move them into the 120g tank, but need to know who can reside in the tank with the aneome.
 
Just a tip I know a lot of people who have done this mistake and want to warn you that when you receive your tank to not mess with the sand or rock work because you can cause an ammonia spike. Usually people will either remove the sand or clean it and it'll just let off a lot of nitrogen gas and nitrates and ammonia and you will have a massacre on your hands. Best thing to do if you want to clean it is get a sand sifting goby like a diamond goby and a good clean up crew if one is not provided.
 
Thank you for the warning, however, The tank will be set up with only the rock and sand for a month before we introduce any fish into the environment. Once the tank is set up, we will get a good clean up crew to start cleaning!
