I recently added a beautiful pair of tank raised baby percs to my system. The tank they were in at the LFS contained lots of anemone and these guys apparently grew accustomed to hosting. They immediately took to my duncans but the duncans just get ticked when they try to host and often close up. This is a mixed 50G reef with lots of zoas, palys and a few sps. I used to have a rose bubble and loved it so it is very tempting to go for one again but I worry about the damage it could do finding it's preferred spot in the tank. What do you guys recommend I try? Should I risk a bubble tip or another anemone or try something like a frogspawn? Thanks for any advise you can give me :)

I would get a Bubble Tip anenome. Having your clowns host in a frogspawn or other LPS will only stress the coral out.
