Pink tip and Clown

I have a pink tip anemone and my smaller of the 2 clown fish was playing host in it this morning but as I arrived home from work I saw the larger one was playing host and now he is chasing the smaller one out when he tries to go in. It also seemed as if this pink tip was stinging the smaller one when the larger clown was in it as he looked to be having a seizure lol

My question is will anemone's only host 1 fish at a time?
 
The anemones can host many fish at once, the problem is the female is territorial towards the male, and won't allow him in. It's normal behavior with clowns.
 
Smitty is right.
The larger clown is the female.The twitching of the smaller clown is it's way showing submission to female.
