All potential meals, particularly the wrasse & blenny if they wander/drift at night.

The only thing I've ever seen go near the Anemone besides one of the two perculas, is the Coral Beauty (trying to steal food) But since the clown starrted hosting the Anemone, he doesn't go near it.

When I first saw our saddle-back clown swim to the top of the tank, grab a mysis, and bring it back down to throw onto the anemone I thought "Oh, so that's what they mean by 'the clown will feed the anemone'!", for the next 2 months I didn't have to get wet to feed the carpet anemone, the clown would act as a waiter ... which was totally cool until I saw the clown almost succeed in dragging our female Anthia into the anemone by it's tail & left pectoral fin!! I know
A. percula and
A. occellaris aren't normally as aggressive as a saddle or tomato (or a large solitary female maroon in heat, they draw serious blood!)

I only live 2 blocks from my office but I'm even considering a couple of cheap webcams (1 for quarantine tank, 1 aimed at "newest sessile invert" in display). Leaving a point-and-shoot digital camera near the tank at all times isn't a bad idea either, you can get AC adapters for most of them so you don't have to worry about recharging batteries.
