I've had what I've always thought was a cinnamon clown for about 7 or 8 months now. I've been thinking about trying to pair him/her, probably her from what I've read, with another cinnamon. But at my LFS I saw what I thought was another cinnamon and a guy there told me it was a tomato. So now he has my head all twisted.
How does one tell them apart? I always thought the cinnamon's body was darker and black while the tomato was more pure orange.
And while we're at it, what are my chances of successfully pairing another cinnamon/tomato with mine? I've read that a single, young clown kept without another for a long period of time eventually becomes a female. Am I wrong? So based on that I figure I could get a smaller one and the original should force him to submit and become male. Let me know if I have it mixed up.
