New Malu (crispa)

So I just got an anemone 6 days ago, It was called "Malu Anemone-Common Heteractis crispa" so I'm not totally sure whether I have have a Malu anemone or a Sebae anemone.

Anyway at the same time I bought a small Maroon clown(1") even though I already had an Ocellaris(2") in the tank.
After about 2 days the Maroon started hosting the anemone so I was pretty happy! Even though the anemone is right under the spot where the Ocellaris likes to hang out. I even saw the Ocellaris chasing the Maroon out of the anemone a few times.

But now I just noticed the bigger Ocellaris in the anemone with the Maroon about 6 inches away just watching this happen.
The anemone is only barely 4 inches in diameter so I didn't expect either clown to host it.

What should I do? Should I get another? Leave them sort it out?
I'll put up a pic in a bit thanks.
 
Right so I just went into the sitting room to grab my camera from beside the tank and the Maroon is back in there sleeping! (it's 12am here by the way) So I'm even more confused now!

Anyway Here's a pic of the anemone.

Does it look to anyone like it might be dyed or bleached or otherwise unhealthy?
 
That is a H. malu. It is a very nice anemone. The few pinkish tentacles is very typical for H. malu. Good luck with him
 
It looks a slightly bleached Malu to me...........I'm guessing it will be green with those random pinkish/red tips.

That has the potential to be awesome................keep us updated
 
Thanks, will do.
My little Maroon is looking really sad watching the other guy in his new anemone.
Should I get another one or leave it or give it a while?
What do you think?
