I know I've heard of a few ideas to lead your clown fish to your anemone like putting them both in a bucket so they have to meet, or putting a fake clown on the glass near the anemone or by trying to put the anemone where the clowns sleep but I think I've discovered my own way. I get my frozen foods thawed in sea water and I use my medicine syringe to suck up some food. I start by barley squeezing any out of the tip, maybe letting 5-10 out. Then I wait for all the fish to flock and gobble up those pieces and then I squirt small amounts directly into the anemone. The clowns are so excited about the food, they go right for it in the anemone and then they realize it's not going to hurt them. They've been playing in it all day since (so much that the rbta is annoyed) lol Anyways, I've done this to the three anemone's I've had and my clowns have taken to every one of them. Just thought it may be helpful. Here's a video of the clowns in the anemone... s270.photobucket.com/user/lindsey0784/media/VIDEO0184_zps410c2394.mp4.html

If there is an anemone in the same tank with a clown, eventually they will meet on their own. Ya can't rush anemones/clown love.......lol

Mine aren't interested in the new nem yet, tho the younger pair have been host testing other corals, like the bubble shrooms and the goni more recently. The male of the larger pair will go into the Duncan's when the female kicks him from the rbta (the Duncan's are right next to the rbta). The Duncan's don't seem to mind the clown but they were always half close when my emerald crab was living in them. They are much happier now.
