I recently purchased a pair of Madagascar clowns and would like to pair them to an anemone. I've read they pair with BTA's and LTA's does anyone have any first-hand experience?
 
A. latifasciatus?!? If so, S mertensii is the only natural symbiant.
 
You could try a LTA at least i think that is what this is

They are A. Latifasciatus. Ok, they might not get an anemone then. I don't want my other fish to be eaten. @Bob Loblaw Do you know where I can get some more info on them that goes beyond what I found on Wikipedia or Reefbuilders (I know both are questionable sources).

I'd be willing to try an LTA I just dont want to put a nem in and then have to go fish it out if they don't take readily to it. I'd also prefer a sand dwelling anemone to rock dwelling anemone.

You shouldnt have a problem with an LTA ,Carpets are the ones that are predatory

The downside of having a rare clown lol. Searching the forums using the Latin name is likely your best bet. I know a couple of guys on RC had pairs at one point. Post up some pics if you get a chance.
