sea cucumbers and sand dwelling anemones

Would you keep them together? I won't get a sea cucumber unless I know for sure that if the cucumber touches my H. Crispa anemone, will it poison the tank? I know hermit crabs will irritate a cucumber but what about an anemone?

I have a tigertail with three tube anemones in somewhat cramped quarters and they do not seem to have any effect on the cucumber.
