t5 tubes 39watt *4 loads of flow about 20 times an hour and the tank has been going for over a year.

Do you have pumps/Streams/powerheads in the tank?

Generally speaking, Bubbletip Anemones (Entacmaea quadricolor) are considered the least challenging species to keep - having said that, they still demand special care.

It's worth seeking out a cloned/tank bred specimen rather than a wild caught one. There's usually someone on the forum with one that's just split - if not, it won't be long before there's another one!

yeah got some heads in the tank, i have covered the intakes with thin mesh, will the clowns live in a bubble tip?

[instantsquid]

No guarantees that any clowns will actually accept any anemone. In the wild, perculas don't live in bubbletips, but many people do have them paired up in aquariums (including myself).
