    I also wouldn't recommend getting anemones even for the clowns unless you are an expert and succesful in saltwater for a long time. The anemone are harder to keep and need great lighting and can wipe out your whole tank.

    I was advised to get a hairy mushroom for my tomatos but this doesn't even insure that they will host it. You can also try taping a picture of a clown hosting a hairy mushroom/anemone and they will catch on...pretty cool.
