Cardinal Adoption

I recently put a Banggai Cardinal in my tank. I have a fairly large Purple LTA with two hosting perculas. I know in the wild cardinals host anemones but I have never seen it in a tank before until the last few days. My Achilles Tang began harassing the new cardinal and it fled to the anemone. I figured the clowns would scare it off. Instead they all three are hanging out in the LTA now. Just curious if anyone else's clowns have adopted a cardinal into their family?
 
I couldnt catch him in the nem this morning but I snapped a few pics before the lights came on. You can see him "hanging out" out though.
Sorry for the crude pics I just wanted to snap a few and my tank is really dirty. Been a busy week.

My cardinal does exactly the same thing with my red haddoni...it hangs out right over it and right next to it.
 
This guy actually goes into the lta at times. Today all he has done is hang out just outside of it next to the clowns.
