Stocking my neew 180 gal

In the past I have had BTA's, but have no nems currently. My 12 yr old daughter says she really wants me to get a nem again. She loves watching them. I told her I could not in this tank cause the fish will eat it. Then I read somewhere that the clownfish would defend the nem. So I am asking here for eveyone's opinion on this.

Can I safely add an anemone/with clownfish in this tank? Or is it a disaster waiting to happen for the poor nem.

Tank currently has a one Pakistan butterfly, with Latticed in QT and a Tinkers coming this week. Also plan on adding a double saddle and maybe a pearlscale butterfly, Singapore angel, trio of flame angels.

Will the clownfish be able to defend the nem without killing themselves trying to constantly defend it's anemone? Will the butterfly's and angels end up eating the nem anyway? If it would work, what kind of clown would be best in this situation?
 
What is going on with my fish?

I had Pakistan and a Latticed butterfly's in QT for 7 to 8 weeks. Treated with PraziPro for 7 days , then cupermine for 14 days, (showing some white spots) Both ate great during both treatments. Left in Qt for two weeks after signs of all disease or parasites were gone and they were doing great. Add them to my DT and they were eating swimming and doing great,with in 3 days they stop eating 4th day they are hiding. Next day dead. Pakistan was flipping upside down on this back. Have 2 shrimp gobies w/shrimp and two neon gobies in tank. They are all doing fine. I now have a tinkers in QT and afraid to put it in DT when the time comes. Any ideas as to what is happening?

Tank parameters:
Salinity 1.025

FOWLR tank so did not do any other test.
