Clownfish ID?

Anyone think they could give me an ID on what type of clownfish pair I got at the LFS. The owners were not positive, they got the pair from someone moving 3 months before.

Never heard of Photons. Will look to compare. I just can't figure it out. Also new to clowns.

There is a lot of variation in clowns, they also tend to get blacker as they get older for a lot of the black morphs.

What ever they are, I figure they came from the same clutch. The markings are pretty much identical on the pair.
