artificial anemone wanted

Pls don't laugh...
My 2 clowns are kind of disoriented since my caulerpa died after my nitrates went down to 5 ppm.
They used to hide and play in it thinking it was an anemone.
I cannot have an anemone now because I have only PC lights 4x65 W
Where can I find an artificial anemone with soft tentacules for the clowns to host in? I saw some in a lfs: ugly fluorescent colors and stiff tentacules.
Thanks

My own conclusion is that they are nitrate traps and fish killers.
Why not try another batch of the caulerpa?

you can also think about trying a euphyllia of some sort...torch, hammer or frogspawn coral. They are similar in structure and clowns are known to host those every now and then. Be ready to eventually have them die too though...the irritation from the hosting will eventually get them too.

I have a fake anemone and my clowns love it. It is actually my son's and he has clarkii's. My nitrates and everything Never have had a problem. Chocolate starfish likes it also, gets on there every couple days and cleans it. Look at your lfs.
