skip the anemone. it will get huge or die from unstable water conditions. i'd even stay away from the clown.

Don't get the anemone. The water is not stable enough in such a small tank.
Also, I wouldn't recommend getting a sabae clown. They get fairly big, especially for a 5 gallon. Get a percula clown instead because they only grow to 2.5".

Don't ask us what you should put in, it is your tank. Tell us what you are thinking about putting in and we will tell you the do's and don'ts.

Neither of those fish will fit and/or be happy in a 5gal.
I suggest a barnacle blenny or a pair of neon gobies. A tank full of shrimp would be really colorful and interesting. Shrimp have a lot of personality.
