Is there any way to influence a clownfish to take residence in an anemone?

Percula Clown and Cony Anemone..

Thanks.

I would exchange it for a BTA (bubble tip anenome). Make sure it is "sticky" before buying it as well as not bleached.
How old is your tank?

My tank is 6 weeks old. I know that this is too early for an anemone, but I have been very lucky so far and haven't had any ammonia spike at all. Everything is doing well and growing, and coraline algae and macro algae are growing in the tank. I think I am going to stick with the Condy, because I intend to keep corals and my tank is pretty small. I've just been keeping the anemone stationary by feeding it once a week. I feed it a piece of raw shrimp that I've smashed.
