Now I need to go look all those up. I can only recall what 2 of them look like.

Any clown will like them, but Maroons are the most conceptually rigorous choice.

Here is a typical example:

My ocellaris clown pair seem happy with their BTA, and they venture only infrequently into the neighboring Rose BTA.

Those eggs are awesome

Of the common clowns

I've personally seen Tomato & Maroons zip to them like they were old war buddies, I would stay away from Maroons as they are a bit mean, and have been known for biting/sucking on tenticles..

I've seen True & False percs in them, although not as frequently, true percs being less likely than false from what I"ve seen.

Saddlebacks and Clarkii will tend to also host, however I don't see those as often in the LFS.

my ocellaris wouldn't go near the anemone when I put it in the tank.

Now you can't get near the anemone without losing skin to the female.
