Which corals make good anemone neighbors?

I found that xenias can be side by side with BTA's but they end up winning because they end up conquering the space in the rock and evict the anemones in the long run.

Any suggestions?
 
I would not try it with too many corals. With the exception of maybe mushrooms and Zoanthids/Palythoas possibly.
 
Other anemones... I prefer rock flower or mini maxis. They will typically stay in one place and if surrounding the BTAs will keep my BTAs in one place.

Thanks. I sounds like a good idea. I just don't want corals that can win the battle.
 
In the long run for me I had to choose between corals or nem for me it was corals.

My BTA is right next to a neon green Sinularia dura. Both are touching each other but there's no irritation to be found on any of the two.
