for a carpet no(what carpet, haddoni mertensi or gigantea??) but a BTA that should enough light.

well idk i just want to know if i can have any kind of carpet from my reef.

I have 2 pairs of clowns and i want at least one pair to have anemone

 

[bencozzy]

well if you want a carpet anemone, get a haddoni they are the easist to care for, youll have to upgrade your lighting.

what kinds of clownfish do you have?

and how deep is your sand bed?

how long has the tank been up and running for?

anemones are not easy to keep in a captive situation, heck SPS are a cake walk compared anemones.

Assuming I read your posts right....

Do you really have two pairs of clowns in there? If so what type?
I don't see them getting along much longer.

And like Ben said, need some more info on your tank.
But with out that info, I would have to suggest against any carpet anemone.
