Default Theiving clowns

I have 2 large Sebae clowns that host in a very large green carpet anemone. My issue is trying to keep the anemone feed (with other things that my small fish). Everytime I feed it I have to chase the clowns away to allow the anemone time to actually get the food inside it and even then these clowns will dive bomb it for quite a while trying to steal it's food. I do feed the tank at the same time to try and distract them - sometimes it works but not for long. Any other suggestions out there? When I feed I do use a long feeding stick and try to get the food as close to the "mouth" as I can. The anemone does grab the food right away and close up but these clowns are briusers and really go after it to try and get the food.
