Paring Maroon Clownfish.........

well i came back to give some news. my male maroon fish found the nem too now. my maroon arent still "pairs" yet. he is trying to get in the nem but she keeps taking him out. he is doing that submissive behavior everyone talks about, twichting. she even grabbed him by the fin a couple of times but didnt hurt him. he keeps twitching to her but shes not letting him in. he is still trying though. he keeps sucking on the nem and twitches when she comes. should i do anything?

they arent dancing around though
 
here is a pic of the male trying to get in.

Junior,

Keep in mind your clowns might kill your anemone if it isn't big enough - usually the books say the anemone should be three times or bigger than the fish trying to host in it.
 
yesterday i was trying to build it, but it ended up being too big to fit in the tank, so today imma finish it off. any idea on the way to build it? what if it wants to move somewhere else on the tank and the cage wont allow it? this morning it moved from the spot it was to the sand.

also another thing is that i tried feeding it yesterday a piece of prawn with selcon but it didnt eat it, the hermit crab found it and ate it.
 
hey guys i came back from school and got a pic of the nem on the sand.

what do u guys think? thats it fully out is it big enough?i was wrong, it is about 4 inches wide...i was thinking about it and i can move the maroons to my nano if u guys think so. if i build the cage with eggcrate the male can go right through it, he is relly small.

the bubble tip lost its bubble at the end and the tenticles look thinner, yesterday i tried to feed it and it would not tak it. is that normal on the first trial of feeding?

let me now
