Tim: I also added a BTA a few weeks ago and have a pair of occ clowns. They never looked interested in it until yesterday something clicked and now they won't leave it alone! I read somewere that Clownfish take time to establish the right mucus to handle an anemones tentacles. (I think this is likely to be true with tank bred Clownfish such as mine that had never seeen an Anemone before)
So be patient and if the Clownfish and Anemone are both happy then it will happen.
