JT,
If you want to provide your clowns with a surrogate host you could try either a colony of hammer or torch coral. Both of my two skunks and also a small perc all sleep within the branches of both of these two corals, and during the day they all hang out underneath them too.

I have kept a green carpet and also a brown LTA in my reef but both simply outgrew the tank so I decided a few years back to not buy another unless I started a clown and anemone only tank or until I upgraded to a much larger tank.

I had no problems keeping either of these anemones, just a stable balanced system and a weekly feeding kept them happy.

On a side note: If you do decide to buy another one, another reefers anemone would be a great choice if it's healthy. This due to the fact that anemones are easily stressed-hence the reason why so many turn to a cloudy bag of mush by the time they arrive at a store.
