Many tank raised clowns (especially ocellarius and perculas) won't host in an anemone no matter what you do. Even if you have the right anemone, they may ignore it. My clowns have ignored my anemone for over 2 years. Probably has something to do with the fact that the tank raised clown eggs are not laid/hatched in tanks with anemones. There is a theory about the anemone having some sort of phermone that draws clowns to them. Only a theory, but a valid one.
