Those are bubble tip anemone's. My ORA Cinnamon Clowns just love mine! The Cinnamon Clowns are very aggressive to me though, attacking me whenever I put my hand in the tank. My personal favorite are false perc's.

BTAs are pretty much natural host nems for Maroons. He he, I'm partial to them since I have a pair. Female is getting more aggressive but so far everyone gets along for the most part. I can't imagine my tank without them.

I had a tomato clown at one point the thing made jaws look like a pussy cat. It attacked
and killed what ever I put in the tank. Took it to the L.F.S and there it stayed for a long
time. I think that I have seen it in a tank in town though. Doesn't seem so nasty these
day's. Clowns are nasty, I do have a pair of false perculas and they live happily in my
reef tank.

That anemone on the bottom right is a condylactis...they don't host clownfish. To have a better chance at hosting a clownfish, you would need a Bubble tip anemone, even then, it's not garanteed.

Depends what else you have in the tank. With a pair of maroons you'll have way more aggression than if you were to have only one, especially if they spawned. I <3 the picasso's as well.. even though they are just a mutated true perc... i have a gold stripe maroon and he's boss hog in my tank.

BTA's will also be hosted by Clark's and Tomato's as well as about eight others not as common.
Remember you have to make sure your anemone is at least three times the size of the fish you plan to pair with it.

Thats because you have the wrong match.
You need a Ritteri, Sebae, or carpet and even then it is never for sure.
