What anemone is most likely to host true clowns?

[Nebthet]

I have a bta and a sebae, both really small in my tank and the only one that is hosting is the sebae to my smallest clownfish at night.

If you do choose to get a sebae though, don't get one that is yellow or white with purple tips as they have been dyed and bleached respectively and take a good amount of care to get back to their natural brown color, if they don't die in a few weeks.

The most prefered host for the true percula is the carpet anemone.
Clowns wont look once, let alone twice at a bubble tip if there is a carpet present.

Trouble with carpets is they get very large and will eat any fish that touches it (except clowns of course), mine even ate my Blue Spiny Lobster.

Survival of the fittest in my tank, 14" carpet with 11 fish including 4 tangs. No casualties since i acquired the carpet a year ago. Maybe just lucky.

Very lucky. A couple of board members I know who used to have carpet anemones have lost over a dozen fish each to the nems, including a very healthy, expensive Powder Blue tang. These were also very experienced reefers, not newbies.
