Clownfish Behavior?

Hey everyone, So I picked up a pair of BW Ocellaris clowns. They were a little reluctant to eat at first so I started them off on live brine shrimp. They now eat mysis w/o hesetation or control. I have noticed them twitching occasionally. Also occasionally the female will kind of headbut the males side and he will return the favor. Any advice would be appreciated.
 
Territorial gesturing behavior from what I have read. Mine do the same. Unless they are mated, this occurs.
 
I have had a pair of true percs for 8 years + now and the female will still give the male a love tap now and then.... but if I shew the male away from something I am working on in the tank she has come and bit me with everything she has a couple times... Most young pairs still do the love dance quite often... or so I am told anyway.
