I have a SPS dominated tank, it was LPS/SPS. I had an opportunity to remove an BT Anemone with the rock it was on because it was taking up some major aquarium space but now my clowns don't seem happy,although they never hosted the Anemone in the first place there kind of just chilling in corner of the tank. I would like to give them something they could host I was thinking a carpet an Anemone? I do have a bare bottom tank. Any thoughts of SPS safe Anemone?

There are none lol you may get lucky and have a nem that will rub corals but not deploy stingers but that's highly unlikely. A carpet will most likely (not guaranteed) stay at the bottom but the issue with that is that it becomes a hazard for the other fish in the tank. BT and LT nems a fish can touch and swim away and a majority of the time be fine. With a carpet the fish isn't getting away and if it does by freak chance it's going to die. Just out of curiosity have you ever touched a carpet? I have one and made the mistake of touching it without gloves they are litterally like Velcro. Your best bet would be to give them some time to host some place other then the corner. They will eventually get over it. If you really want something go buy a LPS or toadstool for them to be happier and host.

My clowns were in my RBTA within a day or so. Mine really got out of hand and I have sold off MANY and I am currently at four and going lower. Many will propagate regularly and they will/have damaged SPS. Its been a constant juggle moving them around. They generally stay put on the rocks they are on and I have two on one side and two on other but I need to get rid of at least two more. These probably would be gone already but the hardest spots to get them out alive.
