Will a cinnamon and a tomato clown pair?

[DeadlyMuffin]

After I started reading Joyce Wilkinson's book on clownfishes I realized that the two tomato clowns I have are not both tomatos. One of them definitely is, it has a deep red color with a blueish stripe, but the other is much more orange.

I had figured the orange was just a color variation or juvenile coloring, but after flipping through the book I'm pretty sure it's a cinnamon clown (also called red and black, which is a terrible name).

I was hoping they would pair off and eventually spawn, but, while they did fight a little bit when I first introduced the small clown (the cinnamon) they stopped pretty quickly and now ignore each other.

Is there any chance they'll still pair off, or should I dump one of them and get a species match?

They may pair up and spawn. The only way to know for sure is to let them mature and see what happens. I'm trying to pair up a Clarkii and a Tomato right now. All is going well so far.

Is it normal for them to ignore each other though? In the past when I've seen multiple clowns in a single tank there has always been an established dominance. These two seem like they couldn't care less about each other.
