How long has your system been running and what is the size of your tank
 
my tank running for 4 months but it is just 5 gallons is is okay?
 
I'm going to respectfully suggest you not put an anemone in your tank until it's a year old and even then, I would suggest you wait until you have a bigger tank. Especially for one of those particular nems.

You know what? A Rock Flower nem can be very beautiful and will probably do fine in a small tank as long as you have proper lighting, flow and care.
 
I agree with melypr1985. You can get some really cool rock flower anemones and they would be much better suited for that size tank. Maxi mini carpet Nems might work as well.
 
That looks like a Ritteri. It will attach at the top of the tank and required lots of light. Once established, it will not wander the tank like BTA's do.
