Default Questions about adding a carpet anemone...

Someone I know is shutting her tank down. She is giving me her carpet anemone. I wanted to ask about adding it to my tank. Other than my small GBTA I don't have any experience with anemones. The tank this carpet was in is about 16 inches deep and the lighting was only 130watts of compact fluorescent. My tank is 30 inches deep with 500 watts of metal halide. How should I go about acclimating him? My tank has almost four times the wattage in lights, but it's much deeper. Any thoughts? Also is there anything I should know about carpets? Do they move much? I have my GBTA on a rock of his own so he won't wander around and sting other corals. I was hoping to do something similar with this one.

Thanks for any info.
