lol. i know THAT much (that clowns dont necessarily like anenomes)
In the wild, every clownfish hosts an anemone, without exception.

But not all types of clownfish will host all types of anemonies. BUT, in a tank, clownfish will host non-traditional anemonies, just dependson your luck.

Go basic, get percs or false-percs, and an RBTA anemone, or long-tentacle. Research the specific lighting requirements of any anemone before buying it. I would go with a long-tentacle because they will bury their base in the sand, and not wander all over your reef killing your corals. These should be put under Metal Halide lighting, each bulb covers about 2ftx2ft over a tank.
