Anemones I have a P.clown and one day I want an Anemone for him. However I want my tank to be right for him.
This is what I have set up in my tank
92 corner has been set up for almost a year with fake corals/live sand
3 weeks ago I replaced all fake and put in all 80lbs cured live fiji rock
I have 300watts total MH = 36" Current USA Sunpod 150w x 2 with lunar
I have 2 PH 1200/600 maxi-jet with Red Sea Wavemaker
I have Ehiem Pro-2 with UV attatched
I have Freedom Filter/skimmer with 1200 mag-jet
My Stock list
Lawnmower Blenny 1
Percula Clownfish - Aquacultured 1
3 Stripe Damsel 4...little basterds
they are fun to watch in rock work
Green Chromis 2
Foxface 1
Inverts
green Brittle Star 2
Cleaner Clam 2
Fighting Conch 2
Arrow Crab 1...Super cool Crab HE FISHES, very neat to watch!!
Blueleg Hermit Crab 1
Scarlet Hermit Crab 1
Coral Banded Shrimp 1
Cleaner Clams 2
Fancy Nassarius Snail 1
Turbo Snail 4
My water
Salt=1.022
Nitrate-10
Nitrite=0
Ammonia=0
PH=8.2
78-80= temp
With my current conditions could I house an Anemone for my clown
I understand they love light and good water conditions, and water flow
But what is good for one may be bad for another, so tell me what is ideal conditions for these guys.

I would try to get your nitrates down to zero first. I'm surprised your conchs have survived with the hermit crabs in there.

thhey don't seem to bother them, but the did kill a few snails and took the shells, but now I have quite a bit of empty shells for them and everybody seems to get along fine.
