If I understand your question, you are keeping your Heteractis crispa (Sebae Anemone) and are looking for suggestions on which clownfish would accept it as a host. There are 14 different species that associate with it in the wild, but only two of these are commonly available in the trade: Amphiprion percula and A. clarkii.

As far as Entacmaea quadricolor (Bubble Tip Anemone) is concerned, it hosts only 13 of the 28 different species of clownfish in the wild.

The only clownfish that is found to associate with all 10 clownfish-hosting sea anemones in the wild is A. clarkii, which is why it is so widespread.
