How do I get my paired clowns to start living in their anemone? I have two BTAs in my tank and they pay no attention to them. The clowns have been with me for over a month and they are still loving on the powerhead. Suggestions?

Thanks!
 
From what I've read, just be patient and willing to know that It may never happen. I've heard of people not seeing their clowns not go anywhere near any anemone for about a year until they hosted it. Than some say it never happened.

What you could try is getting a basket big enough to put one of the anemone in and the clowns and leave them in there for a bit until it seems like their liking it. I wouldnt try to force love though..
 
That's a good idea and I'll try it. The clowns are only about 8 inches from one of the nems, I could put a collindar over them. Thanks! Hopefully they will spot them soon.
