The --clone option is cloning an existing environment called ip2. You probably don't have one called ip2. To make a new environment called opencv which is initially a clone of your base environment try conda create -n opencv --clone ~anaconda. To access it: source activate opencv. To go back to your base environment: source deactivate. Everything you do (e.g. install) while in the opencv environment will not affect the base environment.

Here are the docs for conda (specifically the faq for environments): http://conda.pydata.org/docs/faq.html... ...and here's a nice cheat sheet: https://gist.github.com/qheuristics/8...
