Any bubble tip is good for clowns...yes, the rose would be okay as well. Most people when getting their first anemone don't realize the care involved with them.

Is your tank a mature reef tank? How long has it been up? Are you prepared to supplimentally feed the anemone?

THe common misconception, is you put these inverts in the tank, and the clown feeds them. This doesn't always happen nor is that all the anemone will need. Supplimental is key to overall health. This is not a coral, this is an invert. High nitrates and water parms will kill it pretty quickly.

Unfortunantly it is not as easy as a clown and an anemone and they love and take care of each other forever. Do you homework before you invest, they are tougher than you may think.

You may also want to consider a torch or hammer coral. They are much easier to care for and you don't run the risk of them roaming your tank when they feel the need to move. My 2 clowns used to prefer hosting in my torch coral than my RBTA.

Ahh yes the problems with the anemone moving. Also depends on how big of a tank your putting it in. They sometimes run back into the depths of the tank and it is impossible to keep them in an area you want them and can feed them.

I have heard about the torches and the frog spawns hosting clowns. Depending on the time your tank has been up and what not, that may be a good idea.
