Just picked up a lot of fish from a lost interest tank, anyone have a guess on the specific clown type here. Thanks!

Hard to tell with the pic cuz cannot see the dorsal fin well. Nowadays with all the different types of patterns really hard to say. If I were to hazard a guess that these guys are still young and say mocha clowns (ocellaris).
 
Grab a closeup of the dorsal and read my Sig, from there we can help you better. I'm personally leaning more towards black ice, but its too hard to tell.
 
Ok little buggers won't play nice for the camera! Let's see if any of theses are clearer and Amoo I don't see your signature, not sure if it's a tapatalk thing or not!

Sig says
Percula vs. Ocellaris | Percula 9 Dorsal Spines, Ocellaris 10 Dorsal Spines | Percula more orange around the pupil, Ocellaris more black around the pupil
 
Very well could be a mocha, but I'm still leaning on blood orange. Look at the orange section close to their eyes. I think it's a hybrid of a mocha and common ocellaris, making it a blood orange clownfish, but it looks genetically dominant to a mocha vs a common ocellaris- but I still think it's a hybrid. I do not think it is an onyx however.
