Opinions?

IMO yes. A clown in a fish tank can live without an anemone. A clown in the wild cannot. If keeping an anemone in your tank is at the expense of a wild fish then in all good conscience you should not keep an anemone.

I have had clowns use other corals for a nest just as clingy as an anemone.

I don't have a real problem keeping anemones if you can take care of them and especially if was captive raised......
