Why won't they go in the Anemone? They prefer the heater for goodness sake! [emoji53]

Because they're clowns. ;Woot

For what its worth, my pair took up residence near my return for about a year. Then my hammer coral for almost 2 weeks, before taking to my anemones.

My guess is they were tank raised. They don't yet know about their nem. They will discover it after awhile. They start sucking on the tentacles and then eventually play in it. Ours took about a month or 2 to find it. It sounds ridiculous but you can try and hold a video up to the tank of other clowns playing in a nem. Just be patient
 
But I've had them for two years now, and are a mated pair. Have been spawning for a few months now.
 
After two years, will it ever happen?
