successful anemone keeping

[kyanjesse]

hi guys! it's been a while and my drive's coming back for an obsession about anemones.
has anyone in this forum been able to keep any type of anemone for more than a month or so? can you please share every detail that you think is vital to keeping them alive from selection from a store all the way to your tank?

1. how many gallons (DT +sump)?
2. how long has your tank been running?
3. filtration system
4. lighting system
5. water maintenance methods
6. feeding or supplements
7. problems encountered and solutions
8. what type of anemone?
9. what other livestock you have with it?
10. post some photos of your existing or non-existing (those that already died) anemones

i appreciate every info you can share. thanks in advance!
