Bought these designer clownfish 6-7 months ago and the small male was the same color orange as the female. However past few weeks the female has darkened a lot. They both seem to be good eaters no issues. I was told when I bought them they were orange storms.

Tried to get the best video I can as my photo settings were difficult but you get the idea.

I’ve seen times where the orange dies down to a browner colour once they begin to mature, I know on Nakeds their orange becomes a dark chocolate colour.
But on the “storms” it seems to be the orange dies a bit but not to the extent that your male is, I’d agree with the above in that it is likely a “Mocha Storm”.
