It could take some time for the clownfishes to get used to the anemones before they will 'housed' in it unless the clownfish is from the wild, then it may be faster. Mine takes around 3 to 4 weeks before they settled in. Latter, i introduce a red ocellaris & the smaller misbar got chased out & round the tank by the red ocellaris (bully) at least for a week. The bigger misbar (black ocellaris) settled in another anemone nearby. Now, my two anemones are gone & the 3 of them live happily together ever after. So, sometimes, no anemone is better. No territory aggression. And clownfish does not need an anemone to survive. It depends on what one really wants. And I choose peace.

My percula clowns were very aggressive with anemone in the tank and after i remove the anemone, they were more friendly and a little timid when my hands goes intot the tank for maintenance.
