I've heard people dipping their anemones without any problems, whereas others warn against it. What are you looking to kill?
One thing is, the anemones can inhale the water that you're dipping with, and later expel that into your display tank. Just a FYI, you could get some of it into a tank, and if you don't have enough dilution, it could be harmful to more sensitive inverts that you want to keep.

I have Coral revive (the TLF product) that say's its safe for anenomes or Coral Rx that doesn't say anything specific that I could find.
All things being equal I prefer to dip, but I can hold off if its considered very stressful for nems. Will be one RBTA and one carpet nem in a 130g DT.
