Anemone crab help

[1983evansd]

Can anyone help me? I brought a porcelain anemone crab and I've put him in my tank but he won't host with my anemone.. Does it take time? Is there anyway I can encourage him to go in it? It's a atlantic anemone.
Thanks

Well the best way is to just buy a pair to begin with but with any hosting animals it is always a hit or miss

I don't think atlantic anemones host anything. My anemone crab lives in a bubble tip. Before that he lived in an acan

i had one that would not host i kinda one day just kinda pushed him along into the anemone a couple of times and one day he just stayed in it and lived happily after that.
