anemone ?

About a month ago I updated my 20g FOWLR tank to a 55g. I gave my
damsels their own tank at the same time so I could keep other species.
Well after Isabel passed (just got power back) I went to the beach and
rescued some critters from one of the "New" inland salt water lakes and
added them to the small damsel tank. With a small clump of barnacles
came two small brown/black anemone looking things and I want to know if
they are safe for the tank. The damsel tank is fish only and not lit by
anything but filtered sun during the day. Will they eat my new
barnacles? Any Ideas will be welcome.

just a WAG (wild ass guess) but they will probably die from lack of light.

Could be but the Chesipeake bay has very very bad visibility to begin
with. Would colour have something to do with photosynthasis? Like I
said they are very dark brown/black in colour. They almost look like a
urchin but on a base like a normal anemone. The tank they are in now is
better lit than the waters they came from.

My domino damsel has decided to host the small patch of barnacles which
I saved too. Looks kind of cute.
