I recently got an AquaPod 12 and I'm trying to decide what I want to put in it. I was thinking about doing a pair of clown fish with an anemone. I've never had an anemone before so I'm not sure if it would work. Is there an anemone that will host clowns and do well in a 12g tank with 2 27w pc bulbs, or should I go in another direction with my new tank?
Nano Anemone?

read the anemone FAQ at the top of this forum. Link:

Most of the natural fish hosting anemone species get too large for a 12 gallon aquarium. Heteractis aurora or Entacmaea quadricolor are probably the best anemones for small aquarium owners to consider, but I've seen BTA's that have grown much larger than a 12 gallon Aquapod.
There are many smaller anemone species that do not naturally host fish that are well suited for nano aquariums. Fish may or may not accept such surrogate anemones as hosts.
