I was wondering if there was an easy (in terms of anenomes), smaller, and compatible anenome for two common clownfish? If anyone has any suggestions, please reply. I will do research on the species, but if you could provide some general information that would be great.

The only one that fits that profile is the bubble tip anemone.

I've heard some contraversy about this but: do you need to feed anemones when they are hosting a clownfish? If anyone knows please reply.

It depends on your lighting. If the clownfish are just supplementing the symbiotic photosynthetic organisms that give the anemone the bulk of its food, you probably won't need to feed it directly. However, if your tank is not well lit enough, or the clownfish don't feed the anemone, you will need to feed it.

Thanks for replying, but I think I may try to hold off on the anemone for a while, and save its life.

Good idea. Get some experience under your belt (at least a year with a saltwater tank would be good) and then give a BTA a try. I really wouldn't attempt any of the other host anemones at all, with the possible exception of the LTA (long tentacled anemone) in a larger tank.
