In at least two cases, mags survived tank crashes that took down all my SPS coral. I will say that I have never tried to add any subsequent anemones to my tank. Just one, centerpiece for me.

Mag is my favorite. Colorful, stays put and doesn't eat my fish. Good host for many clown species as well.

While my exp w/ mags is not as extensive as other nems, this has been my exp and by far the most common of comments I have seen from others, though I agree results of course may vary.
