Ya, I can't tell what that fish is.
 
It is a clown, but it's huge, dark and not an ocellaris.
 
The big female. It really looks like a maroon, except the color. It's the first time I saw a video with this mix in the wild. They're probably producing viable off spring.
 
It's actually quite common for the females to get really dark, even lose their stripes, while the males stay really vibrantly colored...and tiny!
 
I didn't know that. I had only seen that happen to the tomato complex.
 
Really cool to see damsels, saddlebacks, and what look like to be tiny cardinals all in/around the same anemone.
