I'm trying to determin the sex of my clownfish, is this possible?
None of my LFS seem to know. I have also herd that juvenile
clownfish can morph kind of like an Anthias, does anyone know
if that is true?

all are male if there is a dominate one among them that one will be a female (also larger then the males).

if the female dies the second in charge will become female.

incorrect....

all the juvies are non-gendered....basically waiting in limbo. Then theres the male which is the smaller of the pair and the largest is the female. If the female dies, the male then becomes the female and then the more dominant of the juvies will then take the role of the male
