Don't worry about clown going into anemone, they are getting aquainted. The more aggressive the clown gets the more immune it will be and the anemone will begin to know for sure this fish is ok. As far as feeding, feed the tank and the anemone at same time, the other fish should be busy and leave the anemone alone.

thank you, yeah because I was feeding silversides and it was hard for the fish to steal that away , but this krill floats , so it tough to keep it away, last night i was watching my mated pair and the femail acctually wiggeled all the way into the stomach it was awesome but thought it may harm the anemone but now that i think about it it eats fish so if anything it would hurt the clown
