Did you buy this tank already set up and established?

If not, it's going to cycle, and you will lose the bulk of the animals you have.

Also, what kind of lighting do you have?

Anemones are sensitive to both lighting and water quality.

Is this your first marine tank?
Do you have a canister filter?

The thing is, mini reefs are much, much harder to care for then larger ones.
How long was it set up for beforehand?

You might be better off getting a larger tank.
