Considering Leather and Brain corals for Nano; alternatives to host a Clown?

[Deuce24]

Hi all,
When the time comes, I'm considering having a Yellow (or Pink) Leather Coral, and either a Red or Green Brain coral in my 12g Nano Cube. Anyone have experience with these corals in a Nano Cube, or similar sized aquariums?

Also, I've heard Clowns sometimes host with Leather corals, can anyone comment on this? Is it common, or unlikely? I don't really want to keep an anemone, and am looking for other sources to host a Clown!

Clowns will often host in a sarcophyton - and various other things- (mine prefer the GSP over the anemone)

Forgive my ignorance, but what is a GSP? I have seen other such abreviations here on TRT, and am often confused by them. Any other mysteries of abreviations you can dispel for me as well?

GSP=Green star polyps. SPS=small polyped stony (or small polyped scleractinian)...I've heard both.

So clowns do host in corals, but it has a tendency to stress the coral. But I have seen them in all kind of coral. From xenia to frogspawn. So you could try anything.
