There is no yes or no answer to this question really. Having said that, Ocellaris clownfish are not a natural host to E. Quadricolor (BTA) [or , the other way around, whatever.. ]

The clowns will take to it if they want to or not, that's basically all there is to it. Just takes time for them to really "notice" it, ie: brushing up against it, or something to that effect. If your clowns are tank bred, it may be even more of a challenge to have them host in an anemone (atl east in my experience) .

Sorry there is no yes or no answer here, it just takes time...
