yeah your fine I would go with another 20 lbs at least if you want too.  
A side note also,  most of the time your anenome will not sit on a flat rock, rather they like to have their foot wedged in a crack so its protected.

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Good point about the anomies...my RBTA has settled in a cove at the back of the tank where it gets lots of light and isent harrased by the power heads...oh yeah and its wedged its foot into a crevace...and I too have never had any trouble adding more LR to an exsisting tank just dont go over board with it, rember the LR will go through a die back phase..I personaly wouldent add more then 50%-75% over what you have now just to prevent amonia spikes, so add 10-15 lbs and if you still need more add it in a few weeks after the new stuff has stableized (sp).#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#tigersax7#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
