skunk clowns and porcelain crabs.

i have a smaller anemone in my tank along with a mated pair of skunk clowns and a porcelain or anemone crab. the clowns don't really host anything right now. they do like to spend their time swimming above and around the anemone, but every time they get too close the crab waves around his claws untill the fish swims away. he seems to do this whenever anything alive comes near the anemone. i was wondering if this might be the reason the clowns will not host the anemone? also on second smaller question: the porcelain crab loves to bug the anemone all day, sticking its legs in its mouth, making it flinch and ball up, stealing food from its tenticals and mouth... is this bad for a smaller anemone? is the relation ship completely one sided? or does the crab do something for the anemone?
