clowns are funny lil creatures ..........depending on how long your orange ones were together one of them is the dominant female and depending on how long the blacks were together there will be a dominant female there too..........usually the largest is the female, the second largest is the male and the others will remain non sexed. all being ocelaris in a month or so the largest of the 4 will become the female and the second of the 4 male and the other 2 will become "drones"

for some reason when i had 4 percs in there 3 stayed togather and the smallest got bullied........so who knows what will happen .............it all depends on the time each fish was together with other fish before they found themselves in your happy lil world..............lol

i would like to a tank with nothing but clowns one of these days and i think i would put about 15-20 of em in there and let them figure it out ...........lol

I have 2 orange and 2 black clowns and no problems. the black clowns seem to be more mello than the orange. but maybe thats the temperment of those particular fish.
