Female maroon clown visiting an anemone

We have a pair of maroon clownfishes that have been hosting our green bta. We bought a sebae a few weeks ago, and for the last 2 weeks, the female clown has been visiting the sebae, swimming through it, nestling at the foot, then returns to the bta. The male hasn't shown any interest at all in the sebae. LFS employee thought that the female might be liking the sebae more and may be wanting the male to join her in the sebae. The female swims in the sebae for about 5 min at a time at least a few times a day. During feeding, both maroons only feed the bta. I know that maroons are the pickiest about which anemones they host. I'm wondering if it's unusual for a clownfish to host more than one anemone or to switch anemones if there's more than one in their tank. Here's a recent pic of them in the bta.
