Clownfish advice needed

I have one condy anemone that has been doing OK for about 2 months. I didnt realize when i purchased it that it was not a great host for clowns but have read that some clowns will host in one. does anyone have an opinion on this and any recommendations for a type of clown or clown combo for a 125g tank. can you have multiple clowns coexist peacefully in the same tank.
thanks

I had a clarkii hosting in mine. They did great together. The only problem I has with the condy is he tended to roam every few days and snacked on one of my peppermint shrimp along his travels. Needless to say the roaming just got to me and the condy had to go.
I have heard a few people have had luck getting maroons to host in a condy but have not tried it myself.
Here is an old pick of my clarkii and his condy. It was very bleached out when I got it but he hosted in it 2-3 days after I got it.

Hope this helps some.
I'm sure a few others can give you some good input too.
Only other advice I can give you is when you buy something make sure its too big for the condy to eat. They have been known to eat small fish.
