My guess is A. melanopus, Cinnamon Clown. I am not 100% positive though. Actually harder from these pictures than I would have thought.

Good luck with them.

I think you have Amphiprion frenatus. Melanopus usually have black pelvic fins

thanks for your help, When I look at them that have a dark area on the pelvic fins right by the body, does that make a difference? also, are the adults then I am guessing?

Females Tomato.......have the spines of the Pelvic fins dark colored.....sometimes black............

Almost all Females are the same way...........

Males Tomato........are small and completelly red..........bright colored..........

The pair look just like these.......

When you got it.........did you see a small Tomato........bright red......???

They are Males.........

Its easy to make a pair..........

Now I understand..........you got 2 fishes.........

They look two Females........

Are they a mated pair.........or they fight each other.........???

Yes, They fight like a mated pair the larger one Female seems to be the dominant one and will nip and the smaller one, I have not seen and shaking going on but still she seems to move him around where she wants him. What do I do if they are both females? thanks again

just to add i guess the male will stay in the clay pot and the female likes a spot under the live rock. Does that mean anything?

if they are 2 females can one female go back to being a male? or no

 

[addictedreefer]

if they are 2 females can one female go back to being a male? or no

No. There is no going back after turning female.

 

[sfutchko]

No. There is no going back after turning female.

Thanks, but how do I know for sure they are both females?

 

[Yuri Barros]

Females Tomato grow big..........

Males remain small........

Females when start to be Females.........they start to grow...........and the dark mantle over the body start to appears............

Breeding Males are small.........bright red/orange............with no signs of dark mantle............

In the store that you bought...........did you see fishes that looks like Male Tomato........???

I mean small........and bright colored........
