    i think it just happens by itself; just wait a while i guess. there really is no guarantee that it'll host, but it might anyway. what kind of anemone is it? o nvm its a bubble tip... i guess just give it some time

    Some have got good results with taping a picture to the tank of a clown hosting an anemone. Kinda shows him what to do.

    Personally, my clown will not even give an anemone a chance to hold on to anything before he starts hosting it. It seems to be a personality thing. Every one will be different.

    Just give it time. He will host. I have a pair of Maroons that cant stay out of a nem. I have a condy, GBTA and a GLTA and they bounce back and forth going to each one at certain times of the day lol. It took a while b4 the smaller clown got in them but he took.
