BE PATIENT!!!!!! Could take a while, could be quick. give it 3 months and if no success get it a mate. If you already have a pair or two, just have to wait it out to see if all will take. A. Percula host anemone species: Heteractis crispa, Heteractis magnifica, and Stichodctyla gigantea. hope this helps. give it some time.

i've heard that placing one of those plastic nemo nori clips near the anenome works.

Or you could have a clown like mine that thinks one of the firefish is its mate! I can't add another clown because I know the firefish's heart will be broken I guess I have weird firefish, the other one schools with the yellow tang...
