Be sure to keep it away from other corals - by about 4 inches, they do tend to sting whatever they can reach.
What size is your tank?

The decision regarding hosting will be up to the clown, not the coral

agree with kathyC, keep it away from other corals since they tend to send out their long tentacles and sting. They have a sweeping motion and even stung my arm when my arm was near it.

I have torch coral.It looks peceful. I didn't see any signs trying to sting others corals. Most agressevi in my tank is clown fish female. Always when I put in tank my arm she try to bite me.

I keep mine high up, but not directly under lights with lots of flow, and again not directly at them. As already stated give it room away from other corals. My clown host the elegance.
