No anemone is considered a beginning animal. They are very sensitive to changing water parameters as well as need a lot of light. If you want one long term be sure you have the lights for it (either MH or a lot of T5) and that you have had stable water parameters for a year. Once you get through with that you could try a BTA and have a reasonable chance of success. Just remember they have a very slow metabolism so they can look good for a long time while they are slowly dying.

Yeah, what they said! I'm not sure if you want an anemone because you want a clownfish and think you have to have an anemone to host it. If that's the case, many other easy to keep animals are suitable hosts. Any of the Euphylias will work, my clown hosts in a pumping Xenia.

My clownfish love my frogspawn.
I have seen my clowns host with all the following coral: GSP, Hammer, Hairy Mushrooms, Frogspawn, candy cane, and torch.
All of which are relatively easy corals to care for.

Mushrooms, frogspawn, toadstools, green star polyps, torches(you need a fair amount of light for them though), and yellow polyps.
