I have a Clarkii hosting in mine... and Also a maroon will ..I am sure there are more but these are the ones I have personal experience with... I am sure a member with much more knowledge and experience will answer soon enough ... BTW you can find a bunch of info here http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=282136

Not sure what you mean by "normally". If you mean, in the wild, then all clowns except the skunk clowns and the percula/ocellaris clowns.

If you mean which ones will normally go into BTAs in aquariums, then it would be all clowns. Perculas and ocellaris are sometimes a little slow to figure it out, but "normally" they eventually go in.

Pink skunks will, but he doesn't feed the anemone..Also tomato clowns love bta's.

how do u get a percula to host a carpet anemone?

I believe BTA's are natural hosts for maroon clowns and several others. My oscellaris' took too their RBTA rather quickly, but that can never be guaranteed.

What is recommended? Add anemone first or clown first?
