Really the clown will take to the nem when its ready and not before, but there are a few tricks that can encourage them to take up residence.
Feed the clown near or around the nem. or,
Leave a flashlight on above the nem when the lights go out
But honestly its a waiting game. I had my clowns and nems for over a year before they finally took to the nem, but once they did they dont venture far from it.

Oddly the thing that got mine to finally host was I added a snowflake to the tank, which happen to be a tad bigger then my female. This created a war in the tank and basically forced my clown into the nem as a result, although had to remove the snowflake to stop the war, but hey they ended up in the nems and now wont leave them.
Dont recommend doing that though, was a serious pain in the arse

Well the clown and nem both are getting adjusted to my new tank and light. The nem hasn't bothered my frags yet because i put him on a new rock with nothing on it. He is eating and stuff but man is he colorful, hes not only red but has bits of green at his base. I think overtime i will do the little tricks but i'm nearly positive the clown made a nest because there's a giant brushed out circle area in the sand. I received my kessil yesterday and I am in love! My tank is now 90% better now. Thanks for all the replies!
the only way that I have found by forcing them is that if you take both the nem and the clown out and place them in a small bowl where they are basically right on top of each other or like jfaiii said use a small pond basket and other then that you will just have to wait of the three though I suggest just waiting
