It appears you have Amphiprion polymnus and not Amphiprion clarkii. Polymnus are typically found associating with S. haddoni and occasionally with M. doreensis(Long tentacle anemone). I have never seen them associating with H. crispa(sebae anemone) although some sources list them as a natural host. My gut tells me it will host your anemone in time.
As a sidenote, polymnus can be very hard on their hosts. I would possibly seperate your clown from your anemone until the nem starts "perking" back up like extending its tentacles and darkening in color. The presence of your clown could spell disaster for a weakened A. sebae.

I know its a A. polymnus. i was referring to this sebae/clown pair

I dont believe it will either, but there is always hope... this saddleback used to host in an open brain coral when it was really small and the clarkii bullied it.

as of now, the clown hasn't looked at the anemone, but will remove him if it starts to be too rough (if it ever does host)
