BTA vs. Cody Anemone

My tank is about to be 1 year old, and I was wanting to celebrate by buying an anemone. I have always wanted one ever since I started fish keeping. I have had mix reviews over what anemone I should get. Some say a BTA is a good choice others the cody. I read that the cody is harder to keep, but in the fish profiles here it says that they are often considered good starter anemones. Which anemone should I get? I'm leaning to the BTA. There are currently not fish in my aquarium.

What kind of lighting do you have? Is your tank mature? Are you prepared to have an anemone roaming around your tank until it's happy, possibly at the expense of corals?

I believe I remember reading that clowns are more likely to host the BTA, if that is something that interests you.

My tank is about to be a year old. I currently don't have anything in the tank, except a few crabs and snails. Two 460nm Actinic and Two 10000°K T-5 HO lamps.

I'd guess that you'd have enough lighting for the BTA.... I'd go with it over the condylactis.
