Clownfish just finding anemone

After about 6 months of waiting I saw my female clownfish ( I have 1 pair) in my GBTA this morning. Once I turned the lights on she wasn't in her usual sleeping spot. I looked down and saw her wiggling all around in my GBTA having a great time. The GBTA is about 10". It was a great way to start my Monday. My question is I have not seen her go near it the rest of the day. Now I was at work and could've missed her. Is it normal for clownfish to start hosting and then be shy about it at the beginning.
 
I forgot to mention they are ocellarisclownfish.com clownfish. The female is black and white and the male is a fancy ocellaris.
 
I wouldn't worry. They go in and out and usually sleep in the nem at night.
It is a great sight to see a clown going into a nem. Now you need to get them to breed under that anemone!
 
I can't wait for that next. I've been waiting for them to notice the anemone for too long. They have been "hosting" the back corner of the tank. I'm just glad I saw them playing in the anemone. I'm hoping they won't be able to get enough of it and then the spawning will follow. I'm curious to see how the little babies turnout. Which color and pattern they become.

Bad sign of addiction!
Everyone will be eaten the day they hatch. You will need another tank to raise the fry in.
Say 100 babies raised to 1/2 inch requires another 50 gal tank. Set up and ready for fry!
