I have a 29gal eclipse system. 2 Ocellaris clown fish, 6 blue-legged hermit crabs, too many turbo snails, 1 powerhead 210gph (er close to that), a sand substrate,25-30lbs of live-rock and straight r/o only water. Readings @ 0 Ph @ 8.1

I want to add an anemone, any kind just for the clowns. I changed the current lighting to a 65W PC 50/50 1-10,000k 1-Actinic 03 blue rays. I want to upgrade until I will have enough juice.

My system will be 3 years old this Christmas and I've had the clownfish since I've started. I just want some info on what to obtain to keep their little anemone friend as happy as they are. I'd also love to know what anemone I should go for when the time comes.
 
I believe your tank is too small for an anenome. Most Clowns dont need them anyways
 
Hello tab!
G.K. is correct you don't need an anem to keep your clowns happy but, if you decide to get one go for a bta,"captive raised if you can find it." Please read http://www.aquariacentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=53000 before you decide if you really want one of these great critters. Please, also keep in mind that all you could keep in the tank would be the clowns and the anem safely.
