New pink skunk

It is acclimating right now. I hope my lfs didn't lie to us, he said this skunk would host a gbta. I said to him that I thought they only liked carpet anemones and LTA's. We have two ocellaris and they show no interest in the gbta what so ever. We'll give it a try and I hope they won't fight with the new pink skunk. The little guy is almost an inch long. Here's hoping for the best
Do you think this little pink skunk clown will host my bta? Will it get along with my ocellaris?

How long had the ocellaris been in the tank with the anemone?

Before I took my BTA out of my tank, my pair of pink skunks were hosted by it. So I would be surprised if they didn't go in it, but it may take time.

Mine are now in my purple LTA.

I have one that will show interest for a while, then forget, then find it again.

I think the Ocellaris are more intrested in getting to the Skunk than the anemone.
