Clownfish sucking the Anemone - Normal??

[vision619]

OK I know this sounds weird but i caught both my male and female Clowns literally sucking the Bulb Heads of the Anemone I just got for them?? I know their relationship with this Anemone looks very 'provocative' and extremely entertaining for us but is that OK? Are they cleaning it?

Could be an indication they are preparing to host.

Normal ritual imo/E... that they are interested in hosting it soon.
