It was actually my first fish I ever got. So many people tell me they hate the maroon clowns! I love them. I just actually bought a breeding pair so hopefully we can get some new maroons :).

female is the biggest and also darkest in color like on the second pic the one on the enemone is the female, also female gets darker with age so if they are young you might be able to tell wich one is wich by the size

Thank for the info. When I bought my tank there was a maroon clown taht came with it. Then I bought another one. One is very big and the other small, similar to yours. However they appear to be the same color as far as darkness goes. I'll guess I'll just wait and see.
