well if i wait a while and they still dont pair up should i move the one that dont go into the anemone into my main tank or...will they be ok in the 12..its weird they somtimes swim together and used to share the anemone but since the power outage the one goes into the aneomone and the other just swims, at night it sleeps in one of the recovering xenia colonies.

yes my female does the same thing but in the bigger anemone they stay together so maybe they need a bigger home.
