Hello everyone i have a pair of allardi clownfish , they are really young the male hasnt even devolped the coloring yet. i wasnt planning on putting an anemone in so fast but about 2 weeks ago my lfs had a beutiful red base, green oral disk ,and green tentacals halfway up and then they turn to red anemone. it is really amazing. well the female(the larger one) took to it but the male hasnt he just kinda lingers. the female will go out to him but he doesnt seem intrested but two nights ago i walked in at night and i guess i spooked him so he ran into the anemone. the female didnt care and neither did he. he stayed until i left i guess. well now it seems like he will only go into it when the lights are off and he gets spooked. Im assumin he is just taking longer to get used to it. he can obviously go in it so i dont see why he doesnt more often , the female doesnt mind and it usally looks like she wants to herd him into it during the day. So my main question is how long untill he goes in?
p.s. i added the clownfish three weeks ago and the anemone was added a week and a half ago.

Patience, I'd say if he's going in at all he will eventually.
