NOt as hardy indeed, but the species (mertensii likely) is quite good once established. If you feed it well for 4+ months and it looks strong and behaves normally (feeding, photo cycles, etc) then you can treat it like other anemones (see the anemone propagation threads in my Fav links sticky atop this forum). Please do post pics if/when you do.

Above all... please do not underestimate the need to heavily feed and condition propagation animals for a minimum of 4 months in this case.

ahh... thank you my friend. Nice specimen/potential. Do feed it well (tiny foods remember... no large chunks!) and keep us posted if you can. Kindly, Anthony
