Describe your tank setup, size, lighting, etc.

Read the above post. Also, the three natural hosts (Magnificent, giant carpet, Merten's carpet) are not usually the best anemones to keep for various reasons without experience.
That will leave you with LTA or BTA which aren't natural hosts but will usually be adopted by the clowns. Which of these you choose will be determined by your current lighting, setup, etc.
My pair of ocellaris occupied a hammer coral even with anemones present. A LFS had a pair living in a clam.
BTW: All other host anemones might work but they are harder to keep so I didn't list them.
