How do i get my two occelaris clowns to host my green bubble tip anemone

Please help

You will just have to be patient, not much else you can do really.
A BTA is not a natural host nem for occs, not that they won't take an alternative, but it may take them longer to do so.

They will find It when they are ready .

I think my yellow tang will find it before they do

And the nem came with an occ

And the nem came with an occ

What do you mean, it came w/ an occ that you have now, or it had one at purchase that is no longer w/ it?

 

[The new fish on the block]

It came wirh it

Well if the nem came w/ an occ that was in it already, and you still have that occ as part of your pair, I'm sure it will go back into it over time.

U can get both clown and the anemone and put them in bag maybe like a 5 pound bag or in a container just the 3 and they will pair that how I did with my clown

Sorry, don't mean to bag on anyone, but I have to say this is a terrible idea, please don't anyone do this.
A clown needs to adapt to a nems sting cells, if they don't it can end in death of the clown, this is why I say there is really nothing you can do to force it to happen faster.
Maybe feed clowns w/ a turkey baster in that general area, but the clown needs to enter when it senses it is ok.
