So I was checking up on my tank and my clownfish is putting about 1/8'' of my anemone's tentacles in it's mouth. I got a video and it's uploading but is this normal..? The clown seems to not be getting hurt and the anemone is doing fine.

When I zoom at the end you can get a good view of it sucking on the tentacle

its natural clownfish behavior,, they will even bite off tips of the anemone sometimes... nothing to worry about
