How to steer clown to host nem and not softies

[trixxx619]

I’ve had a clown pair for about 6 months now. The larger doesn’t have much interest in hosting but the smaller seems to be attached to a small head of frogspawn. I added a nice large RBTA about a month ago. What’s the best way to steer the clowns away from smothering my softies and host the nem??
I tried moving the frogspawn towards the back of the tank, little clown followed. Maybe move it closer to the nem?

Or maybe put the frogspawn in a basket and scare the fish into the nem?
Or have a friend take care of the FS for a few weeks and hope that they host the nem.
Also, I heard if you put the nem And the clowns in a basket you have a higher chance of the nem hosting the clowns.

Removing the nem isn’t possible now unfortunately. I think giving the frogspawn away might be only option here shortly!

Why? Deep in the rock work? Dont give, sell or ask someone to babysit.

Best way! In the basket with clowns. They have no choice but to go in. Works every time!
