Sweet....three different ID"s on the clam...lol it was given to me by a friend so that's why i'm not sure what it is. It looks like a squamosa to me though...I'll get a better pic of the shell next week
I am 99.9% sure it is not a squamosa. Look them up. Not even close. Here is pic of a squamosa.

no. if the clowns are mated then they will both live in the same anemone.

If the two don't like each other they will be very territorial, but in my experiences they have liked each other usually.

Three clowns, 2 anemones (look a little bleached), 1 hippo, 1 yellow goby in a 20 gallon? I don't care if you are upgrading...that is not a suitable environment for those creatures.
Why did your tank crash before? I remember that you had 2 BTAs (one of them was extremely bleached) under PCs and said they would be fine under those lights. Do you still have PCs? I don't care if it is short term, you should have the correct lighting BEFORE you get the anemone.
Have a little self control and patience.
Sorry to jump on you, but you seem to make the same mistakes over and over.

FYI, the long tentacle in this picture was in my tank at work for over 11 months...and growing (10 gal w/ simple PC....) SO i figured it would be okay in my tank (i've got more light)...AND, i have complete flexibility with these creatures because of my job. If the anemone starts to bleach, i take it 20 minutes bakc to the LFS iwork at and throw it in an 8 year old 300 g with halides. Because of my job, i am able to try different things and break different rules because i have tons of security. And if i ever do feel that the animals are in danger, i handle it. Thanks for the flame though.
