I'm sorry but there really is nothing that anyone can recommend with a 100% guarantee as there are so many factors involved. The biggest hurdle to this question is that it's not the anemone that accepts or rejects a clownfish but the clownfish that determines if they wish to call a certain place home. Tank raised clowns are less likely to bond with an anemone then wild caught ones but that's not always a sure thing!

I've had one of my clownfish attempt to bond with clove polyps, zoanthids and xenia while the other has absolutely no interest in any of those corals.
