Can someone help me determine if this is a perc or ocellaris?

I believe it to be perc.
Yeah I thought so I have a frostbite in the frag system and was gonna move him over to the dt but wanted to make sure. Looks like I won't be moving anyone haha
 
My opinion is based on all the black on back fins and thick black lines following the white bars. I’ve had a few ocellaris and the Black was never that apparent even at the young age.
 
The dorsal fin ray count also points to percula.

Clowns can have a mixed heritage however as percula and ocellaris are commonly bred together to speed up colouring (percula can be very slow to show their potential but ocellaris are much quicker).
