i am thinking of getting a hawtain(think thats how you spell it
) anemone and wondering if my false perc will host it? i am only getting an anemone for my false pec and wanted to nko which ones he liked.
P.S. No 100 or more $ anemone right at this moment i am on a tight budget of about 50$ (i just spent 450
salt water is addicting)

Clowns normally do not host hatian anemones. There is a chance that a hatian would eat the clown. What type of lighting do you have? Lighting is key for the anemones survival. T-5 lighting is not that expensive, but I'd get halides if it is in your budget.

As I'm sure you're well aware, anemones are not easy things to take care of and require intense light and perfect water conditions. Clownfish do not need an anemone to survive and many captive bread clowns will not host them.
To answer your question, a Bubble-tip anemone (BTA) would be your best bet.

BTA is the easiest to keep (compared to other anemones) and your clowns can host it (assuming they do - they may never touch the anemone).

He was saying clowns may not ever host or "touch" an anemone.
