Need advice about the difference between Ocellaris and Percula

I'm doing some research because I want to get a mated pair of clownfish. I have a 30 gallon nano tank.

I've been reading that the Ocellaris is more peaceful than the Percula. Can anyone post a link to an article or website that fully explores the differences between these two fish?

Thanks for the help!

I've heard it suggested that Ocellaris is really just a different color variant of Percula, but that book was published in '03, so it could have been proven incorrect at this point. I am personally not entirely positive of the differences, other than Ocellaris tend to have thinner bands of black outlining the white stripes than the Perculas, who tend to have their black spread a little bit and have the coloration become more muddy.
