Clownfish twitching?

[JayChen]

My bigger clown likes to twitch in front of the smaller one, why is that? Am I getting two female clowns and the bigger one is showing dominance?

It is unlikely that you are getting two females - if so, you would likely be seeing fatal levels of aggression. Based on your description, you are seeing normal mating behavior. It is not only the male that shimmies. Exciting times - good luck!
