I would slow down and get things stable for a few months before adding a anemone. They need things to be very stable and constant, no salinity swings or other weird parameters.

As others have already said, make sure you have a stable tank first.

What kind of clownfish is it? If you get a natural host, the clownfish is much more likely to go into the anemone.

Yup you need to pull the reigns and slow down a little. Noone here is in any way discouraging you from anenome's but you need to know that clowns don't host anenomes... Anenomes host clowns (which means in some cases the anenome will eat the clownfish if it doesn't want him there)

Read everything that you can and don't hesitate to ask questions Everyone here is more than happy to help out!
