If you are dead set on doing this I would get the maroons as they get much larger than an ocellaris.

I haven't kept the other Clowns cause I haven't had a big enough tank for them yet, but I think some of the larger ones (such as maroons) would stand a better change. I would definitely get the eel trained on prepared foods before they meet.

Gonna quote from your other thread asking about eels.

Not saying don't do it. Just be sure you know what you are doing, if your clowns are too small and seen as edible by your eel, and he can catch them, they will be an expensive lunch for him.
