I think I just saw my clown fish in the beginning stages of mating.
The guy in Houston at the store said they would spin around in circles and do crazy stuff when they were establishing the dominant one. They did that a day or so ago. I saw the larger one twitch here and there when I fed them and the larger one was a little aggressive to the other the smaller one isnt as aggressive towards the larger one as much.
Is this the start of the metamorphosis from Male to female for the larger one.?

Female is always larger and the small one is the male. The male is submitting to the female to become a pair, not a mated pair.
They will become a mated pair when they lay eggs
