Ocellaris clowns or true percula are both great starters. I personally got Ocellaris when I started. Two would work perfectly for a 30 gallon! Best of luck!

I would just say standard for your first clown. Some special morphs require special care and might be way more aggressive to other fish, plus they are a lot more expensive if they die for any reason!

Do you mean designer variants of ocellaris and percula with "morphs" or different anemonefish species?
Most ocellaris and percula designer clowns should be the same in temperament and needs as the captive bred natural (wild) forms.
That said, I personally would only get natural forms.
As for other anemonefish species, some are more mellow while most are more aggressive.

Most but not all designer clowns are Ocellaris or Percula or both. They are much more available and healthier, in term of infections/disease, then the wild caught clown-fish. The problem with the tank raise clowns are deformities that can be seen if you are discriminate about your fish. ThRoewer is a purist. He even care about where the fish are from and try to pair with fish from the same region.
I am not as passionate as ThRoewer, but I very much care about having deform free clown-fish.
Various designer clown-fish will have temperament and size the same as the parent species. I have never keep any clowns that are hybrid of different species other than Ocellaris-Percula hybrid. You just need to know what is the true species of the clowns you want to keep. Pf you don't know, or have specific question, just post them here. For ID, it is best to have a clear picture.
I would not assume that very body would know what a RSM 130d tank is. I would give dimensions of this tank so we don't have to search about it before we can answer your question.

Get a bonded pair of Nemos, hopefully you can view them at a LFS, pay the price and be happy, the cube is perfect, since they are the show, maybe a nem?

Minh, In case you are still looking for more, AC got a number of wild Irian Jaya percula in. Some of them are onyx. All rather small so likely not yet female.

They also had a purple foot magnifica, unfortunately bleached like the one I have, but otherwise healthy.
