...or don't! Those species are the most difficult to maintain in captivity and should be attempted by only the most experience anemone keepers!!!!
Wait a few more months and then try a BTA (E. Quadricolor). Many times Ocellaris clowns will host them, and they're far easier to keep than any of the other three listed there. Another bonus, you can (with a little work) find Tank Raised BTA's that have been "fragged" from anemones already in captivity. These will be hardier than WC counterparts, and best of all have no impact on the wild population.

Someone will say this won't work but putting pictures of clowns hosting anemones helps "teach" them to host. It worked for me -my ocellaris began hosting my RBTA. Now they jump from the 2 BTAs and the torch coral, and occasionally the xenia. I bet if I could get my butt in there they would host that too!.
