Hmm,, well H. Crispa is quite a bit harder to care for than E. Quadricolor. The LFS is correct in saying the clowns will host the anemone. This is a natural host in the wild... but are your clowns tank bred, or wild caught? If they are tank bred, it may take a little longer, depending...

Your lighting is not sufficient for this species unfortunately. H. Crispa really should have metal halide lighting. I don't think it will thrive in that tank.... what size tank is it in by the way??
