Will a False Perc host a Condy or should I get rid of the Condy and get a Bubble Tip? They have been in the tank together for about 3 months and they don't even go near it......

Condys are not natural host, since they are from the Atlantic and there are no clownfish there and vice versa. With that being said maybe, but most likely not, but now with that being said maybe about a BTA also. There is no way to guarantee that a clown will use any anemone as a host.
The real question is tank stable enough for either? How long has your tank been up, they recommend at least 6 month, just so you have practice keeping your water stable. What type of lighting do you have that will also help with success of keeping an anemone.

i would get a heteractis magnifica (ritteri) although a entacmaea quadricolor (bubble tip) is not a natural host for them iv got a pair of false percs and it took them longer to get used to the entamaea quadricolor (bubble tip) but they can host a entacmeae quadricocolor (bubble tip) anemone. but a condylactis gigantea (condy) could very well EAT your clowns so i would get rid of it. condylactis gigantea they very rarely are a host to clowns or any damsel. but iv only seen yellow stipe maroons host a condyalactis gigantea (condy). but like i said i would go with a heteractis magnifica (ritteri)anemone for best reslts. and another one to consider would be a macrondactyla doreensis (long tentecl). iv not ben in salt water too long but have seen a lot of amphiprion ocellaris (ocellrias or NEMO) go to these anemones. i hope this helps you out.
