First anemone advice.

I have a Maroon Clownfish and was wondering what would be a good, beginners, safe anemone to get?

The tank is 175 BF with about 2500gph and 384 watts of lighting. My list of livestock include (Potters, Flame, Eibli, Lemon Peel, Rusty, and Coral Beauty) Dwarf Angels, Sixline Wrasse, Bicolor Blenny, Mandrin Goby, Spotted Hawk, Barbanded Goby, two Emerald Crabs, Green Chromis, Figi Damsels, Yellowtail Damsels, Royal Gramma, and a Grass Eel. Also lots of live rock.
 
I suspect you are going to need to improve your lighting some. You might be able to get away with a BTA up high in the tank. Exactly what kind of lights do you have? If you have 4 96W PC fixtures, which is what is sounds like, you could add 2 or 3 400W MH and have a tank with enough light for just about any anemone you might want.

You could then convert your PC to actinic supplementation.
 
because its a maroon clown you have, make sure it is MUCH larger the the maroon and very healthy. my maroon is very agressive with the bta
